Quins to win.
Quins are on a poor run but this is nice fixture for them to turn it around.
I think we can ignore the hammering they took at Warrington- every side as a nightmare performace at some point-overall its been a nice start to the season for the London side. 4 wins is good going with 2 of them coming in very tough fixtures away to Saints and Leeds.
It is 3 defeats in a row right enough but the last two have been quite close games. Hull, they were ahead with 10 mins to go and although Bradford did deserve the points there were a couple of forward passes which lead to 2 of the Bulls scores.
I like the attitude they have. Very hard working, good team spirit, important in any sport but maybe more so rugby league. You wont see them gamble in their own half, they dont try to be too clever, they work the ball out their own half then hunt the mistake.
Wakefields season is all about finishing above the bottom place on the ladder. We dont really need to go into all their problems but as everyone probably knows a number of players had to move on so its quite a small squad with not a great deal of experience.
2 wins though is not bad for Kear- away to Hull and Catalans. They cant seem to perform to that standard at home though having lost all 3 games and only scored 1 try in each of these fixtures.
There is no real power up front the forwards are weak and the Wildcats lack genuine quality any time they do get near the red zone.
Quins can win this. It wont be easy as Wakefield never lack commitment, it may well be quite close and not so high scoring, but i still say the Londoners will take the points.
Looking at the squads they have far more quality in the attacking zone with Gayle, Dorn, Purdham and Ellis.
I also expect another fine performance from Pryce. He is scoring some amount of tries this season and teams are finding it tough to slow him down due to his size, hes massive. With Wakeys lack of power id expect him to crash over for at least 1 try.
