Andy Ellis has taken over the hooking role from Chad Randall<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Harlequins hooker Andy Ellis says the team’s half-backs have helped to make him much more confident this season.<\/b><\/p>\n

Ellis missed the opening few months of the 2010 campaign, after joining from Barrow, with a shoulder injury. <\/p>\n

“Sometimes you end up getting calls from three or four different people,” he told BBC London 94.9, “You have to take the right one. <\/p>\n

“Working with Galey Luke Gale and Chad Randall throughout pre-season has given me that confidence to do it.” <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He added: “They’ve given me a sort of ownership on the role, which enables me to do what I want and to put the ball wherever it needs to be.”<\/p>\n

Quins had a blistering start to the season, but have lost their last two games by an aggregate of 122 points to 36. <\/p>\n

Ellis s the squad have had a tough few weeks at training, but is confident results will start to go their way again soon. <\/p>\n

“We had that disappointing game against Warrington and this week against Hull FC where we should have closed the game off. <\/p>\n

“We know what to do, we take each week separately, with new goals, a new set of ideas and hopefully improve from last week.” <\/p>\n
