FT: Bath 61-26 Gloucester
Speaking to Premier Sports, Gloucester boss George Skivington said: "We made more errors in the first half than we probably have all season. We were beaten in all facets of the game and Bath were better than us across the board. We felt
if we cut out the errors we would be in the game but ultimately, in the second half, we fell off tackles, missed kicks to touch and didn’t execute as well as we
wanted to."
On selection: "It failed massively, there was nothing to be excited about. I thought
we would see more energy from the lads from the bench but it didn’t work.
"The errors were an issue and we will have to look at why
that was. We had a good training week and I thought we were in a good spot but I was wrong about that.
"Today is massively disappointing. The Rec isn't an easy place to
come but we were not as good as we should’ve been today."

Bath head coach Johann van Graan, speaking to Premier Sports: "I am just glad to finish that game. It was a weird time to play the last of the European games at 17:30 BST on a Sunday.
"Gloucester have been playing really well and put 50 points on Bristol a few weeks ago.
"It is always a tough game.
"We always say best defence and best attack. It is about the defence too, but that is the seventh game in a row that we have scored 40 points or more.
"The most important thing is keeping the opponents score down.
"We will never get too ahead of ourselves and will keep the outside noise away."

Player of the match Alfie Barbeary, speaking to Premier Sports: "It is a huge result for us. It is great to get one over on Gloucester, it was a great game.
"Our squad is so competitive, the boys coming on the pitch really added energy. I don't think any team can compete with us when we have that quality off the bench.
"We are just focusing on the next game. We are back into the Premiership next week and will go from there."

Unfortunately the match was almost copy and repeat for Gloucester who, as they were three weeks ago when the two sides met in the Premiership, had no answer to Bath in the second-half as they showed their strength and blew their West Country neighbours away.
The Cherry and Whites could barely string a handful of phases together during the second 40 minutes and were restricted to just one try on the scoreboard despite running the hosts close before the break.
Again, Bath are just proving to be a level above their league rivals especially when they are at home.
They will now travel to Scotland in a few weeks to take on Edinburgh in the semi-finals for a place in the final at the end of May and with the treble still firmly on.

Bath 33-19 Gloucester

Gloucester director of rugby George Skivington is sat on the end of the bench where I am today and has a steely look on his face - he barely seemed to blink for a moment.
Skivington has clearly seen enough less than 10 minutes into the second half to warrant some changes, with five players coming on - tellingly perhaps all in the forward pack.
After being overpowered in the second half during this meeting a few weeks ago, Skivington is playing his card early to try and get his side back on level terms.
Tomos Williams has then also made way for Caloan Englefield at scrum-half.
