Don’t forget Bath came into this match two wins from two. Great win given how many players we’ve missing! Shillcock MoM for me put the pack did good in rubbish conditions.

That is a MASSIVE result.

Could really turn our fortunes around and give us some confidence.

Shilcock superb.

Well, well, well. I know it’s the season for pumpkin pie, but I think for a few of us it should be humble pie. Myself included.

Jamie Shillcock, you beauty.

Joe Powell, you lucky, luck boy.

I just need to clarify my point on Shillcock, I like him I don't think he did anything wrong today but where as Burns was always a 10 playing 15 I think Shillcock is the inverse, he's very much a full back that can cover 10 and thus is lacking that last little but of tactical vision a natural 10 has.

I do really want to see him on tandem with Pollard from 15, that could really elevate our attacking game, its part of the reason I have suggested Steward moving to 12 or on the wing

When those see the highlights you'll see just how gross the conditions were - I am not sure I have seen a more consistently awful weather throughout an entire game.

Powell was really really poor - wouldn't pick him again any time soon given the choice.

Huge result in the circumstances/conditions, well done to all for sticking at it for the full 80. Mistakes yes but one of those games where you just shake those off and look forwards.

Only thing damper than the weather are the commentary team, Bath/Finn love-in drenched. Bayfield sounds so disappointed.

Get in Tigers!! :smt023 :smt003
