Gloucester have conceded 67 points through four PREM games. Pretty good! Spoke to a source about what's different under Joel Tomkins' defence. Read here: theofffieldreview.substack.c…

Whilst injuries notably to Guy Pepper have impacted it nonetheless is a reflection of Bath’s current form that only 3 players have made it into Borthwick 36 man squad. No gripes on my part.
Training squad announcement 📋 Head coach Steve Borthwick has named a 36-player training squad for a three-day camp ahead of the upcoming November Nations Championship fixtures against Australia, Japan and New Zealand.  Read more here 👉 EnglandRugby.com/follow/news… @O2 | #WearTheRose

Did anyone do any press after Glos v Bath game? Cant find anything @JohnEvely_BPost? On reflection I hope the senior players got an absolute rocket. Didn't step up and manage the game well at all.

Tackle success of 76% Opposition concede 20 penalties and 3 yellow card and yet... 16 entries into their 22 resulting in 5 whole points. 2 more frontline players crocked. Shocking stats. 🔵⚫️⚪️ The train has hit the buffers on a siding.

Grim stat for Bath fans That is their lowest score in the PREM under JVG, lowest previously under his tenure was 9 scored away to Sale. It’s also their lowest in the Prem since the 0 scored here in the 64-0 loss - their last loss in the league at Kingsholm until tonight.

Gloucester 82% tackle success excellent given the amount they made, albeit against Bath's blunt, unimaginative attack. As usual Bath's tackle success not great.

Hard not to conclude that this is a bit of a crisis. So inaccurate, we haven’t learned from last season and tonight we reverted to the introverted gameplan that teams now know how to defend (especially when the ball is slow). Second week in a row we are pointless 2nd half…

Yep Russell . Very careless. Arrogant almost . But it must be said that Glos easily the better team tonight. Bath need to ‘sort their heads out’ . Injuries notwithstanding Bath have not been great for a while now. Something missing 🤷‍♂️

FULLTIME Gloucester 23-5 Bath Once again Bath fail to score after halftime this season. Way too many missed opportunities both in the close range stuff and when the ball did find its way to the backs. Bath need a reset. Plenty of talent but something in the air is not right.

Bath deserve nothing tonight. So poor. JvG back to the drawing board.

Bath look stuck between a rock and a hard place. Forwards taking the lead but struggling to dominate. Backs disconnected. Need a big second half.

So unlike Bath to come away without points after so much pressure. Intense defence from Glos but Bath just not good enough against 13/14 men.

Injury latest from Bath Rugby ahead of Friday night's West Country derby at Gloucester Rugby. JvG could really do with one of his wingers who are being assessed 'week to week' back somersetlive.co.uk/sport/oth…

FULLTIME Bath 14-32 Montpellier That was not good enough. Lack of core skills once again showing. Defence poor, set-piece inconsistent. Montpellier turned up but they didn’t have to work for there tries very much. Something is not right at the moment.
