Starting with a win is very important this season. Beating irish, is essential to Quins getting a god start and then taking that into the Northampton and Gloucester games, all of which are very important.

So you disagree with our DOR, then?

Be good to keep this up the top on a sticky. The next two matches are "must wins" wherever we end up. Having seen what Exeter achieved, I am hopeful of more than 0 points at Welford Road

we are going through a set of games that Quins should be winning anyway

That's funny, I thought that
Quote:Quinten Poulsen
I think it took us something like 8 games to get 17 points last season.

Although we would have a chance to make that up against relegation zone strugglers Leicester in the following game

So we're currently on course to finish above 1st place

Another way to see how we are progressing is to compare the games so far this year with the equivalent fixtures from last season.

Northampton Home = 4
Gloucester Home = 5
Worcester Away = 4
Sale Home = 5
Leicester Away = 4
Exeter Home = 4
Bath Away = 4
Newcastle Home = 5
Total 39 points
Respective fixtures 2010-2011
London Irish Away = 1
Northampton Home = 1
Gloucester Home = 5
Leeds Away = 5
Sale Home = 4
Leicester Away = 1
Exeter Home = 5
Bath Away = 1
Newcastle Home = 4
Total 27 points

.....My money's on a close win at home and then the rematch being the first loss of the season. It will hurt, but there's no shame in losing to Toulouse at Toulouse.

If Quins can beat Munster at Thomaond Park they have to believe they can beat Toulouse at Toulouse. Yes I think we can shade Toulouse at home, but I'm travelling to Toulouse to see a Quins win!

Ten games to go - 50 points available.
Mathematically we could still be relegated.
Therefore we still need to win every game.

Nothing is certain, but Quins couldn't be much better placed, could they?
Quote:DOK
Since we're still top of the league and six points clear I assumed we'd be so far off the map that we'd be in that area on the edge marked "here be dragons"!
