Five changes for Harlequins’ trip to Sale

  • +1

Harlequins Head Coach Ross has made five changes to his side to face Sale Sharks at Heywood Road in Round 14 of The PWR.

It’s all change in the front-row as Jessie Spurrier and Spanish captain Laura Delgado are named to start as props, with Carys Phillips at hooker.

The remainder of the pack is unchanged, with Kaitlan Leaney and Abbie Fleming partnering again in the second-row. Millar-Mills and Callender are on the flanks with captain Jade Konkel wearing eight.

Freya Aucken comes into the starting lineup at scrum-half, replacing Lucy Packer. Kayleigh Powell is at fly-half with Lagi Tuima and Sarah Parry partnering up outside her in the midfield.

Clàudia Peña shifts out to the wing joining Beth Wilcock and Ellie Kildunne in the back three.

Maddy Grant is named amongst the replacements, the Canadian International is set to make her debut in the Quarters having arrived at the Club in December.

Ross Chisholm said: “This final block of games is huge for us, the top of the table is tight and we’re excited to be in the fight for the top four. This is the tightest I’ve seen the league and we know what’s needed from us to achieve what we’ve set out to achieve this season.”
