Re: Newcastle vs Bath - Sunday 3pm
Hopefully Sela rested for good player management of a youngster after his tremendous effort against Toulon, rather than being injured. Not like Bath are short of a tighthead and it does look a mildly rotated side.
Can't really see Newcastle getting their first win here, although the weather may be a leveller.

The 2 benches tell you all you need to know where these 2 clubs are currently. Bath's is ridiculously good.

Great to see Finn Baker on. He was exceptional through the age grades. Just in a position of big strength and bad timing with injuries kept him out of the recent U20s years.

First half was a good contest, second half Bath went up a gear and then bench just powered them through what was left of Newcastle's resolve. I think Bath have more internationals on the bench than Newcastle do in their squad.
