Agreed John, it would have been nice to see a potential repeat of that fab try from last season! Wink

Assume from the lack of responses to the question - that there won't be many of us there.

Best get my vocal chords in order.

Discussion on the Bath board around the 5/2 split in favour of the forwards and some possible problems with the back row. I hope Robbo has done the same amount of homework for thsi week that he did on Wasps.

Really p'd off cos I couldn't get the time off work to make it down the road as I had planned. Mad

Oh well good luck to the boys and lets hope for no more injuries. Although it would appear that BC's isn't to bad...

Cairns injury is not serious

Stuart Hooper is a lock so what is he doing at 6?

If he really is there then that is a definite weak spot as he was pretty lumbering and slow whilst at Leeds.

Hopefully Chris Fusaro will get some game time. Who knows he might even do a repeat of Geoff Cross's try. Chris scored a scorcher like that in the IRB Sevens at Murrayfield when playing for the Thistles.

Good luck for the team tonight. Smile

Congrats boys!!!! Just the start we need.... lets hope we can do the same next week against Munster. Bring it on!! Very Happy

Very impressive - no, actually stunning - result. If that doesn't give the guys the confidence that they can beat anyone, then nothing will. Having outplayed Wasps last week, the outlook is really positive for this season. We can beat anyone on this form - let's just hope we can carry it forward to next week.

Wow what a result away from home. I'd better go and place my annual bet on the magners league then...
