Team to play Sale Sharks - 19th November 2004 |

NEC Harlequins head
coach Mark Evans has selected the same team that played in the 40-10 victory over Saracens last Friday (12th November) for
tomorrow nights (Friday 19th November) game against Sale Sharks in the Zurich Premiership at Edgeley Park, kick-off 7.45pm.
Recent signing Geo Cronje will be travelling with the team but must continue to wait to make his Quins debut, having
recovered from a knee injury.
“As satisfying as the result and performance was against Saracens last week, it
will count for nothing if we do not build on it,” said Evans. “We are still at the wrong end of the Premiership
table but victories in our next two games against Sale and Leeds Tykes (28th November) will give us a good chance of climbing
the ladder further when the league campaign resumes at the end of December and into the New Year.”
“Sale
have an excellent record at Edgeley Park and we are expecting another tough game. However, if we continue to improve on our
recent form then we can be confident of coming away with a positive result.”
The full team is as follows:
15.
Tom Williams 14. George Harder 13. Dafydd James 12. Mel Deane 11. Simon Keogh 10. Jeremy Staunton 9. Steve
So’oialo 1. Mike Worsley 2. Tani Fuga 3. Ceri Jones 4. Roy Winters 5. Simon Miall 6. Nick Easter 7.
Andre Vos (Capt.) 8. Tony Diprose
Replacements: 16. James Hayter 17. Jon Dawson 18. Simon Maling 19.
Luke Sherriff 20. Andy Dunne 21. Ugo Monye 22. Gavin Duffy |
