I like that backline.

 

[Patchey]

I'd defiantly be there if I wasn't busy tonight. That backline is silly good looking.

Replacements: Rob Buchanan, Darryl Marfo, Will Collier, Stan South, Kieran Treadwell, Charlie Piper, Sam Stuart, Alec Coombes

That front row shouldn't be allowed in an 'A' game. Hope Treadwell goes well of the bench. No Sloan means we might see him this weekend?

Game will be streamed from there - it's not normally the greatest quality, but it's watchable!

 

[Tmartin995]

Jack Nowell played the first 35 minutes, scored twice and was then subbed in a "planned change"

 

[ratsapprentice]

24 - 8 to Bath full time.

 

[Patchey]

Balls. That did not go well.

Quin's tough time in the A league continues... Loss to Saracens 'Storm'.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Agreed a longer A league/LV Cup would be good esp as it doesn't count towards the champions cup now.

ATM there is 14 "A" league teams in 2 pools of 7 yet each team only plays 6 game roughly a season, the setup could work if they did both Home and Away games a season not one or the other.

 

[Irishkid]

We can't put a team out

 

[Wendigo7]

Not to deter from the thread again.

But Sam Burgess played at 6 and won Bath A the match with a last minute drop goal to win 18-17 over Exeter Braves.

They were 14-6 down at half time.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Can we go one thread without Sam Burgess for Christ sake.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Er... no he didn't!

 

[Wendigo7]

Ignore me...

the result is correct but being told Sam Burgess had dropped the goal to win it.. I'm now unamused. 3.5k attendance for an A League game is handy though...
