Harlequins side to play Worcester

  • +1

Head Coach Gerard Mullen has named his Harlequins Women side to travel to Worcester Warriors Women in the final Allianz Premier 15s clash of 2020.

Looking to close out 2020 with an 8th successive bonus point win, Mullen has named a strong side to travel to face Worcester Warriors Women in the Allianz Premier 15s.

Ireland hooker Leah Lyons, named amongst the Game Changers, makes her first matchday squad of the season, whilst fellow Ireland international Anna Caplice comes into the starting XV for the first time this campaign.

Bethan Dainton returns to the squad for the first time since October having come through an injury lay off, with USA international Kristine Sommer moving into the second-row in place of Fi Fletcher who misses out through injury.

Ahead of the clash, Mullen said: “I’ve been really impressed with what I’ve seen from Worcester this season.

“They seem to be a well-coached team with good defensive pressure and a well drilled set-piece, so we will have to be at our very best to come away with a win.”
