Ben Spencer will captain the side as Josh McNally is ruled unfit to play.

Ethan Staddon comes in off the bench to take his first ever starting place for the Blue, Black and White. Tom Doughty moves from travelling reserves and on to the bench.

Hooper’s side to face Quins now has seven starting homegrown players and nine in the matchday 23. The highest representation yet in the Gallagher Premiership.
