Off the bench Harlequins will unleash the first of the Club's summer signings, with scrum-half Scott Steele donning the 22 jersey as Head of Rugby Paul Gustard opts for a 6-2 split on the bench. View from the Head of Rugby Paul Gustard said: ""It has been a long five months without the sport we love and we are delighted to have the privilege of kicking off the competition once more. "It has been an unusual mid-season pre-season with limitations and moderations, but the time has also allowed us to regain a healthy squad, with injuries hampering our progress and continuity in the first half of the season. "Sale are a dangerous team with a host of international players and they will always be a tough test. We respect them and are well aware of the humbling we took at the AJ Bell earlier in the campaign. "We need to make sure we play with urgency and intent and deliver a performance our friends, family, fans and our Club can be proud of. We can't wait." Teddington Nub News will publishing a full preview of the game tomorrow so look out for that.
