The Zurich A league game between London Wasps and Harlequins will be played at Rosslyn Park RFC on Monday 15th March at 7.30 p.m.

According to the Wasps unofficial site: “We have delayed announcing the team because of the demands on our U19/U21 England players and the finalising of the 1st Team 'Poland' squad. This will undoubtedly leave us somewhat tight in terms of selection.”

When the two teams met at The Stoop in February when Quins Reserves ran in nine tries to win 64 – 22. The recent spate of tries against The Army and Gloucester is likely to continue with the reserves determined to ensure qualification for the play-offs.

They head the table currently for the Southern Group with 26 points from 7 matches, having won 5 and lost 2. They have scored a massive 300 points while conceding only 128. That produces an average result of 43 – 18.

The referee for the match is Wayne Barnes, one of the new Premiership officials.
