Yeah, that's the problem. None of those players would look out of place in a top 6 squad just not many of them would stand out either

Hard to follow what is going on so have resorted to Edinburgh rugby twitter updates.

Fair fecks to them.

Sounds like McKenzie's try will be one to watch out for in the highlights, he was always a pretty mobile 6 when played there. Apparently he won the first 3 pointer at the breakdown as well.

Looks like Sinckler has been yellow'd, 50 ish mins played. Time for Edinburgh to get the board ticking over.

Blimey. Hopefully it's just a precaution. He really does need to play next week and even that isn't ideal preparation for 6N as it's a diddy team.

The quins forum suggests Dell was the support runner on a break down the middle and has scored a try... Waiting on twitter to confirm but that'll be a beaut to watch if it's true!

It's indeed true. 20-6 to Edinburgh. Dell had nobody near him. Think he has to start the 6N with no Dicko.

He did well during the autumn . He also steals a lot of ball.

Quins have dumped their entire bench on the pitch now. Sounds like desperate stuff.

I hope you highlighted the fact they've already been beaten by Embra.

Never been a Sutherland fan. I reckon Dell is comfortably above him.

Having said that... the Quins forum suggests Jones is destroying Dell come scrum time. They're pretty one eyed so not sure how accurate it is but he did struggle on a few in the AIs.

23-6. Weir slots another. He's a limited fella but we need him with plenty of confidence ahead of the 6N.

Dell is probably ahead of him now although behind in terms of scrummaging. But to be fair that's a lot of time training and getting better that Sutherland has missed with injury and he was developing nicely imo for a 24 year old prop. Both will hopefully get better.

I would imagine a fresh Jones off the bench still knows a trick or two.

The only player getting singled out for praise on the Quins forum is Kinghorn. Interesting...
