Finally, finally, back to Prem action after a two month break for the Six Nations. Nobody can argue the quality of the superbly enyertaining international competition but if you were a marketing man promoting the league product you would be tearing your hair out. And it's only back for two weeks before clubs are back in European action.

So where are we? Third bottom if the short answer and we travel to The Stoop to take on second bottom Quins (Saturday kick off 3.00 live on TNT). Who'd have thunk that back in September?

On the bright side there's no relegation and eight games to go so, hopefully, Gloucs' lack of players needing breaks after the Six Nations (Saints had ten) will be a bonus.

So we will see Seb Atkinson,and Arthur Clark returning from England duty with Wales' Tomos Williams and Freddie Thomas also back ansd able to face a Quins side who were also on a losing run before the Sis Nations' interval.

Gloucs:

15 Ben Redshaw

14 Will Joseph

13 Max Llewellyn

11 Ollie Thorley

10 Charlie Atkinson

9 Tomos Williams (Capt)

1 Val Rapava Ruskin
