Amy Turner has named her side to take on Trailfinders Women in season finale of the 2023/24 Allianz PWR.
Retiring Harlequins legends Shaunagh Brown, Rachael Burford and Emily Scott have been named in the Starting XV, as the iconic trio prepare for their final game in the Quarters.
The front-row remains unchanged from The Game Changer, as Silvia Turani, Carys Phillips and Babalwa Latsha line up once again. Abbie Fleming and Danelle Lochner continue their second-row partnership, while Shaunagh Brown and Amelia Harper start on the flanks. Jade Konkel completes the pack and will captain the side from number eight.
In the backs, Lucy Packer starts at scrum half and Ella Cromack wears 10 outside her, with Lagi Tuima and Rachael Burford reuniting in the midfield.
Following a brace of tries last week, Lisa Neumann starts on the wing, accompanied once again by Jade Mullen. The club’s record appearance holder, Emily Scott, will make her final start from full-back.
Amongst the Impact players, Hannah Duffy prepares to make her 50th appearance in the quarters.
Head Coach Amy Turner said: “This game presents a huge opportunity for both sides in what promises to be another exciting London derby. It’s important we finish the campaign well and begin to build for next season, as well as bidding farewell to a number of players who have been central to Harlequins’ success over the years.
“It’s important to us that we give those retiring and departing players the send-off they deserve. There is a lot of emotion surrounding this fixture and its crucial we channel that into our performance.”
