[QUOTE="TRF_Olyy, post: 697188, member: 34990"] Eehhhhh, not really. Eastmond is quite clearly first choice 12 and is far far better than Burgess there (at the moment). He's being rested and Burgess is being given his first start in a game that Bath will cruise through - not much more to read into it than that. Just realised Hooper is on the bench - praise the Lord! Day/Attwood should absolutely be Bath's first choice second row. Making Hooper captain was a mental choice considering he is a huge step down from either of those two. He'll be back next week, though, and the other 11 sides in the prem will cheer. I would've thought Louw would take back the captaincy, but it makes sense to give it to someone else considering how long he's been out - ease him back into Bath rugby. [/QUOTE]
