FT: Bath 63-10 Edinburgh
Edinburgh head coach Sean Everitt speaking to Premier Sports:
"They were hot tonight and made us pay for every mistake. I thought we fought gallantly in the first half
but allowed them too many entries and we couldn’t keep them out.
"The set-piece
did settle as the game went on but we gave them too much front foot ball and
with the backs they have are dangerous.
"Disappointed with the score but the boys
did fight. There’s always positives you can take, the youngsters did well so some pleasing
individual performances but we got banged by a more powerful team tonight.”

FT: Bath 63-10 Edinburgh
Bath scrum-half Ben Spencer speaking to Premier Sports:
"It was
brilliant. We’ve had a few pretty tough games so it was nice to finish with a
good win.
"We spoke this week about what happens next in this competition, whether
we are at home or on the road. It’s big for the club, the boys love playing
here in front of these fans.
"The backs got a bit of a rocket at half-time, we let
things get a bit loose in the first half but for us it was about structure and
getting quick ball in the second half and we saw the results."

Bath have made a massive declaration of their intent to win this competition tonight. Very impressive indeed.

I hate to say it but it is increasingly difficult to support Edinburgh. Another weak performance tonight and struggling in the league, again.
Andrew, Gullane
Is Alfie Barbeary going to win player of the match yet again? Always putting Bath on the front foot and lays the ball back on a silver tray for his scrum-half every time!
Bath centre Ollie Lawrence, speaking to Premier Sports:
"We challenged ourselves
to get back to playing rugby like we did last season. At 28-10 at half-time that’s
a scoreline where Edinburgh can get back in the game but we said we wanted to punish
them and managed to put 63 points on them so we’re happy.
"It wasn’t a complete performance
but we’ll certainly take it.
"We all respect each other and get on well as a
group. We get behind each other."
