I know it happens a lot, but I'm staggered by the way the commentary is so bath orientated.

He's unlucky there as he rolls clear as well.

Well they've let us off the hook there. Optimistic crossfield.

We've got to just tighten up the discipline a bit and keep hold of the ball. Bath have too much talent for us to just edge them out of it. Getting Potter to chase the Ford kicks would help, we are all staying in one line so the kicks are all to comfortable.

I think it is verging on being a disgrace. It’s starting to wind me up more.
There is never any points for 2nd place...

Certainly wasn’t Wiese who collapsed the maul - despite Dayglo’s assertion

Really could go either way! Think we can step it up second half, got a good bench so let’s see what happens.

Enjoying the game, contrasting styles,but good defense for us. BT pundits way too one-eyed Bath love-in. Think the game is being well refereed.

Goes with the territory I think.. Tigers at home and we will get Kay or Oz; away, it’s anyone’s game. We talk about teams targeting games, but you look at any 23 facing us and it will be as strong as possible, as they want the scalp. But the week prior or following they will be resting. Rough with the smooth I guess.

Yep going to be close. Think our bench is slightly stronger and we have the ascendancy at scrum time so hopefully that’ll continue. Hopefully Pearce will stop letting them go beyond the 5s and start pinging them for it. Joseph going off early was a blow for them and might impact their fitness late on but really too close to call this one
