I just can’t see (although I might be wrong) curry, underhill and Earl in the same back row, all too similar. I might be wrong but those are three superstars.

Dunno how we got that as far left as Coka, but once we had, it HAD to go further left!

Again showing why you shouldn't select players purely on their dimensions... Ahem tall locks...
Never say never, he somehow made the rwc training camps despite playing as bad as this for years
Coaches just get blinded by him being massive, despite not having the speed anymore, or the skills...ever
And he seems to be paying it back this half.
I don't know that he's done us favours (no idea on that scrum there) but he'd have ruled a few things differently in the first half.
True. I've always had a hope from him...but the realisation eventually kicks in...he a ponderous lump..

Not sure we got to the line there tbh
My worry with Underhill with the way he plays and his bodies history I just can't see him lasting till the next RWC
If you do....you Need to big locks.
Love to see those penalised, real blight on the game currently
C'mon Bath - don't be stupid!
Worked hard for a decent lead, momentum and a man advantage, and we're giving away penalties left right and centre!

Reid was still offside there, so thankfully the try was scored or the risk was penalty try and yellow (especially just after a warning)
How did they **** that scrum up so badly
I feel if you had a back line for 6/2 bench split it could work
Say have
Isiekwe
Martin
Willis
As bench options
Worked well in the third place game, tbf
Lawes/Curry vs Curry/Underhill
You lose Lawes lineout work, gain Underhills breakdown work
Underhill probably a similar level of carrier to Lawes and while they're different kind of defenders I'd say they're on a level there too (though realistically I think it'd be Curry taking Lawes defensive role, as that's what he was doing during the RWC)

I don't know why more player don't just welly it when it's bobbling around and they are under pressure.
Great game there.
For Glos - because possession was king at that point; for Bath, because we already had the territory.
******* hell. What's happened to Bath
