Hope our impact off the bench will help give us the upper hand

Better in parts but lineout is failing again and as the half went on White got slower get the ball away and forwards were having to check their runs.

Why aren't they kicking into the corner and challenging the lineout? Or chips over the Bath aggressive defence. At the moment Bath are finding it relatively easy to keep Tigers around halfway

Our lineout has been absolutely dire so far today

Absolute embarrassment, this lineout unit.

Shocking by Barnes, Taufua on the ball, no penalty. Next ruck, Eastmond on the ball, no penalty. Next one, Cole competing for the ball and neck rolled off, no penalty.

Been impressed by Wells, has been very good in these conditions. Cole has been dire ball in hand, driven back a few times that has killed all momentum.

Over the last two years pretty much every player has come in for criticism at some point. Apart from Veainu and today he's proving why.

Truly world class full back in my opinion.

Every single ruck Bath are slowing it or offside.
Not like Tigers can take it in their own hands and give some raking.

That one was no different to the last one yet this time we get the scrum.

We are so slow to recycle and go again in that area, Exeter get so much success by pick and driving quickly, not allowing the defence to reorganise, we dilly dally so much the defence can have a breather.

Anyone else see Bateman giving Youngs the lineout call to which he replied “what the ****?”

No wonder our lineout is so poor is we don’t even know our own calls!!
