Bath player ratings: Bath surged into the EPCR Challenge Cup semi-finals with a 61-26 demolition of Gloucester at the Rec, notching nine tries in an attacking masterclass that left their West Country rivals reeling.

With Edinburgh now awaiting in the last four, here’s how we rated the Bath players:

1. Beno Obano – 7
Held his end up in the scrum against Russian tighthead Kirill Gotovtsev and threw in one trademark thunderous tackle with Barbeary. Didn’t get many chances in the loose but never wavered physically.

    Finn Russell hype reel

    Hype reel for Bath and Scotland star fly-half, Finn Russell.

    2. Tom Dunn – 8
    A talismanic presence. Scored from a maul, threw accurately at the lineout and made his physicality felt all evening. Set-piece general and defensive warrior.

    3. Archie Griffin – 7
    Took his try well with good support lines and stood up in the scrum. Still finding full rhythm after injury but a dependable outing from the 125kg Wales tighthead.

    4. Quinn Roux – 6.5
    Another understated shift from the 124kg former Ireland lock. Effective at the breakdown and industrious in the tight. Played his part in denying Gloucester second-half momentum.

    5. Ross Molony – 7.5
    Arguably the Irishman’s best outing yet in Bath colours. Split Gloucester with a strong carry off Russell’s inside ball and showed excellent awareness to tee up Griffin. Active in defence and composed throughout.

    6. Ted Hill – 6.5
    Yellow carded for a brainrot breakdown offence but came back strong. Finished Bath’s eighth try and brought customary physicality to every contact. His carrying could have been more effective, averaging just 2.5 metres per carry.

    7. Ethan Staddon – 6
    Started with a bang but faded slightly. Disrupted well and helped Bath win the contact area but lacked standout moments in attack. Solid rather than spectacular.

    8. Alfie Barbeary – 9
    Irresistible. Two tries and a constant menace with ball in hand. His second was vintage Barbeary – a mix of aggression, footwork and vision. Back to his destructive best when it mattered most.

    9. Ben Spencer – 8
    Ran the show with typical calm and clarity. His kicking game was spot on and he kept the tempo high, helping Bath pile on five first-half tries. Nabbed a well-earned score himself with sharp support play and never really let Gloucester settle. Another assured performance from the skipper.

    10. Finn Russell – 8
    Sublime in the first 40, threading passes that unlocked the Gloucester line with ease. One ill-judged kick handed Morris a try, and he cooled after the break, but still had enough left to send Coetzee through with a beauty.

    11. Will Muir – 8
    A near try early doors set the tone. Though caught out for Carreras’ score, his impact in broken field and aerial contests more than made up for it. Always threatened when given an inch.

    12. Will Butt – 6.5
    Less eye-catching than in previous outings. Big in defence during the sin-bin period and took contact well, but struggled to find space. Steady if not standout.

    13. Cameron Redpath – 7.5
    Grew into the contest after a quiet first half. Added breakdown presence and offered glue between phases. Not flashy, but tidy and increasingly influential as Bath turned the screw.

    14. Tom de Glanville – 7.5
    Relished the move to the wing. Opened Bath’s account after staying composed out wide and continually tested Gloucester with sharp running lines and smart offloads. Excellent in the air too, even if like Donoghue, he fell off a few too many tackles.

    15. Ciaran Donoghue – 7
    Electrifying from the outset. His early counter sparked the opening try and his elusive footwork repeatedly shredded Gloucester’s chase defence. Made metres look easy and produced a stunning hit on Christian Wade. Blotted the copybook with six missed tackles however.

    REPLACEMENTS:

    16. Niall Annett – 6
    Came on late and didn’t put a foot wrong. Clean lineout work and tackled with intent.

    17. Francois van Wyk – 7.5
    Added immediate ballast. Carried hard and helped neutralise Gloucester’s fresh legs.

    18. Thomas du Toit – 6.5
    Tidy shift off the bench. Strong in contact and secured a couple of crucial scrums under pressure.

    19. Josh Bayliss – 6
    Got on the end of a few decent carries.

    20. Miles Reid – 7
    Showed typical edge at the breakdown, including one steal, and supported well in open play.

    21. Tom Carr-Smith – NA
    Introduced late with the game long won. Not on long enough for a fair rating.

    22. Max Ojomoh – NA
    Didn’t have enough time to make a meaningful contribution.

    23. Jaco Coetzee – 8
    A bruising if brief cameo. Ran with venom and purpose, capping off his shift with a deserved try from Russell’s delayed pass. Made every carry count and kept Gloucester retreating. Sadly injured himself in the act of scoring.

    Reds vs Blues: Ex-All Black missed the mark, Lynagh’s Wallabies statement

    Agree re Lynagh.


    Disagree Beaver got it wrong. Blues made that look easy. It might be a brawn over brains picture though? More in the last point, but, and this may have changed by player selection, the Reds were very lucky this game. Tele’a should not have been red carded as Ryan landed on his shoulder, and both Tate and Jock (was it) should have been yellowed carded for their offenses in stopping tries. We also had a try dissallowed by going back 10 phases in play. We all should have learned after the RWC that that is against the rules. So straight away on this simple decisions alone the result changes to go in the Blues favour, away from home and playing fairly poorly. The sleeping giant if you will. I didn’t agree with the Blues take either tbh, but to flip it around and say it’s the Reds instead is completely inaccurate (though a good side no doubt you have to give them a chance).


    And you’re also riding the wave of defense wins matches a bit much. Aside from Dre’s tackling on Rieko I didn’t see anything in that match other than a bit of tiny goal line defending. I think if you role on the tap for another second you see the ball put placed for the try (not that I jump to agree with Eklund purely because he was adamant), and in general those just get scored more often than not. They are doing something good though stopping line breaks even if it is the Blues (and who also got over the line half a dozen times), I did not expect to be greeted with that stat looking at the game.

    'Not real Lions': How the 1989 British and Irish tourists put Australia on the map

    Life can unravel in an instant. For me, that moment came when deceitful cryptocurrency brokers vanished with £40,000 of my savings, a devastating blow that left me paralyzed by shame and despair. The aftermath was a fog of sleepless nights, self-doubt, and a crushing sense of betrayal. I questioned every choice, wondering how I’d fallen for such a scheme. Hope felt like a luxury I no longer deserved. Then, Tech Cyber Force Recovery emerged like a compass in a storm. Skeptical yet desperate, I reached out, half-expecting another dead end. What I found, however, was a team that radiated both expertise and empathy. From our first conversation, they treated my crisis not as a case file, but as a human tragedy. Their professionalism was matched only by their compassion, a rare combination in the often impersonal world of finance.

    What happened next defied logic. Within 72 hours of sharing my story, they traced the labyrinth of blockchain transactions, outmaneuvering the scammers with surgical precision. When their email arrived, “Funds recovered, secure and intact,” I wept. It wasn’t just the money; it was the validation that justice could prevail. Tech Cyber Force Recovery didn’t just restore my finances, they resurrected my dignity. But their impact ran deeper. They demystified the recovery process, educating me without judgment. Their transparency became a lifeline, transforming my fear into understanding. Where I saw chaos, they saw patterns; where I felt powerless, they instilled agency. Today, I’m rebuilding not just my savings, but my trust in humanity. Tech Cyber Force Recovery taught me that vulnerability isn’t weakness, and that seeking help is an act of courage. To those still trapped in the aftermath of fraud: miracles exist. They wear no capes, but they wield algorithms and integrity like superheroes. To the extraordinary Tech Cyber Force Recovery team, your work is more than technical prowess. It’s alchemy, turning despair into resilience. You gave me more than my funds; you gave me my future. May your light guide countless others through their darkest nights. From the depths of my heart: Thank you.
