Bath Player Ratings | Premiership Semi Final
- 1699
Bath make it back to back Premiership Final's after beating Bristol in one of the most exciting games of the season. The Rec was treated to a thrilling first half that finished just 6-13 to the visitors but felt like a 21-21 type of half. The second half belonged to the hosts as they came out firing and drew level just 90 seconds into the half. Here are our Bath Player Ratings.
1: Beno Obano - 7
Solid at scrum time and defence plus added some carries in a game that was very fast
2: Tom Dunn - 8
Shaky start but came into his own and along with the rest of the team hit his form in the second half. Top tackler on the day
3: Will Stuart - 7.5
Solid at scrum time and defence a in a game where none of the Bath starters missed less than two tackles barring the front row
4: Quin Roux - 7.5
Superb around the park, had plenty to do on both sides but fell off 5 tackles, equla with de Glanville and Spencer
5: Charlie Ewels - 7
Tough game for the tight 5 with the speed at which Bristol started but industrious none the less.
6: Ted Hill - 9
Our Man of the Match, gets through a mountain of work and is incredibly fast for a big man, the speed that secured a try saving tackle at a vital time
7: Guy Pepper - 9
He and Hill were the only two that were in the game from the get go, Pepper made the loss of Underhill less of a problem, great outing by the official Man of the Match
8: Alfie Barbeary - 7
Hard carries but spent most of his game chasing Bristol, unfortunately left at the break due to injury
9: Ben Spencer - 7
Slow start but he and Russell were instrumental in the turn around at the start of the second half.
10: Finn Russell - 7.5
Average first half but sublime second half
11: Will Muir - 6
Made a few too many errors in the opening 40 minutes
12: Cameron Redpath - 8
Great rugby IQ and was in the thick of it with ball in hand and dealing with the chirps after the whistle
13: Max Ojomoh - 7
In fine form, did a good job of boxing Benhard Janse van Rensburg but could not contain him
14: Joe Cokanasiga - 8
Back in fine form, offering himself as a crash ball runner or speed out wide he is a huge assett for Bath
15: Tom de Glanville - 8
Shaky on defence but held up well at the back with Ravouvou, Janse van Rensburg and Mata coming at him
16: Niall Annett - 7
17: Francois van Wyke - 7
18: Thomas du Toit - 7
19: Ross Molony - 7
20: Miles Reid - 9: 21 tackles in a half of rugby and an imapact the Springboks would be proud of.
