Tonights game : Fri May 22, 2009 9:12 pm  

Well pleased with the effort tonight, especially by wheeler and eastmond, ran for everything. A few little mistakes by Kyle, but nothing too dramatic. Longy raised his game tonight, hunting his contract perhaps, but either way his best game for a while.
Harlequins defended well and it was a great win against the side 4th in the league

Longy was superb and Eastmond showed absolutely nothing again. They've got to make a call on him IMO. If they think he's good enough for a position he should play there now, not play 15 minutes of each hald on the wing then switch to halfback.

Its a bit difficult for Eastmond to do show much as a halfback when he is playing on the wing.

For the short time he played at standoff I though he injected himself into the attacking moves quite well.

We really missed the wingers though tonight.

I agree, the lack of positional consistancy can't help us. We need to play Eastmond at 7 for a couple of games, see what happens, if he storms them keep him there and bye bye longy, if he doesn't longy might as well stay

I thought Wheeler and Eastmond did quite a good job, chased down every ball well

I don't think Eastmond was that great tonight. Agree about Long and Wheeler both played well.

Overall though I don't think it was a great game, too many silly handling errors and overall a far from exciting game - but we won and thats what matters!

Pretty average game.

I thought Longy was good in the first half but pretty poor in the second half.

Set up Roby's try with a great run

Don't know what Potter does in training with this lot but it is making for zero entertainment value.As for Long-don't even offer him a 12 month deal.

Long was very good tonight
