Tim Molenaar to Quins

Tim Molenaar will play his first team debut for Quins following his move from Gloucester... Dont know to much about him, would be interested in any comments from Gloucester fans.

George, he's a big bulky crash ball merchant. His distribution isn't the best, but he has a surprising turn of pace. His defence is very solid too and given his size is able to put some pretty big hits in.
He hasn't featured much for Glaws in the last 2 years. Prior to this he was arguably our first choice OC (which is by far his better position) ahead of Tindall and Trinder, but he suffered an injury and never got back into the team for long enough to build any form.
You'll need to give him a run of games to get the best out of him, but with your injury crisis in the centres you may well just do that. I would have slight question marks about how effective he can be at IC as his distribution isn't amazing and he has a non-existent kicking game. In general you have got yourself a pretty decent player and I hope you get to see the best of him because you'll enjoy watching him swat defenders aside!

Except JTH has been rubbish for about 18 months.

Well he's what JTH brings to the team when on form. JTH might be a little nervous if Molenaar keeps up this good form.
Also what does this say about Casson's future? He has a heck of a lot of potential but if our 12 must be a lump then he's always going to struggle.

Seeing as we were so kind and gave you Molenaar, please can we have Rob Buchanan in exchange?
