[Which Tyler]

Yellow car period a killer.

[Which Tyler]

Beautiful doe Bedford.
3 men I jured, decide to run it from their own 22

Bath 26 - 5 Bedford
Worley the try scorer

[Which Tyler]

Wow. Brilliant offload fools everyone, except Bedford LHP, who atepps the defence and runs it in from his own 22 (well, Bath's, but LHP)

[Mellsblue]

Aubergine emojis everywhere.

[Which Tyler]

Leaa good
Switch off for the restart (not England/Bath)

[Mellsblue]

Bedford’s lhp is playing like Henry Arundell after a Toby Carvery blowout.

[Which Tyler]

TBH, I'm not sure that I can pick between the Bedford tries - both pure class

How you coping Mel's?

[Mellsblue]

Booj needed to give that. 2mins later and it’s a Bath try.

How you coping Mel's?

Only just.

Booj knew.

[Mellsblue]

Part time s&c starting to show now.

[Mellsblue]

Ah, well, never mind. There was a glorious 20mins in the second half to back up the first half tries and I think we represented the Champ very well. Gutted I couldn’t be there.

[Mellsblue]

bit of a joke this round....loan players pretty much all recalled.

What do you expect to happen? Loan players are in the championship for development. This development competition comes during the international period when all the clubs are short.

I'd prefer the competition to be under 23 with a restricted number of players over 23 allowed per each match day squad. Focus all clubs on keep developing players.

The Prem clubs didnt really want the cup and are making that point.

They need to listen to Bath’s motm post match interview…

[Which Tyler]

You did, and should proud of yourselves.
Have us a real fright.

From a Bath perspective, 26:0 after 30 minutes.
Switches off

A good Bedford team came back into it.
A little panic when we tried to swirch back on.
Did manage to concentrate, and looked comfortable again for the last 20.

Game effort from the Blues. Played their part in an enjoyable match.

[Mellsblue]

The post match interview with Worley and Conway also shows what a positive this comp should be. What rugby is really about at its core.
