After one of the most captivating rounds of rugby in Premiership Rugby history, we have the near impossible task of reviewing each of our West Country sides thrilling games and selecting a team of the week.
Bath took on Wasps in the weekend’s curtain-twitcher at The Rec on Friday night, coming excruciatingly close to securing a miraculous 29-point comeback as they were defeated 39-31. Bristol Bears followed the next day, surviving a late scare to remain undefeated with a 40-36 victory over London Irish at Ashton Gate.
Gloucester were not so lucky at the StoneX Stadium, as last year’s Premiership finalists Saracens clawed back a game that was the Cherry and Whites to lose, with a late Tom Woolstencroft brace and a match-winning conversion from Owen Farrell handing George Skivington’s men a 41-39 loss.
