Is Mark Wilson injured? He hasn’t featured for a couple of weeks now.

Wilson is injured.
Big game for Newcastle. Its one they will be targeting for a win.
The explosive Dombrandt at 8 up against the grafting Chick should be interesting.

[Scrumhead]

Grafting Chick sounds like something you’d hear on Love Island

[fivepointer]

Wow...Quins up to 3rd, Newcastle 4 pts adrift at the bottom. They are in very deep trouble with Worcester winning and Bris getting a losing BP.

Wow...Quins up to 3rd, Newcastle 4 pts adrift at the bottom. They are in very deep trouble with Worcester winning and Bris getting a losing BP.

Shows how absurdly close this season is that we're won 6 lost 6 and somehow in 3rd place.
