Aviva Premiership: Bath 32-9 Worcester Warriors

20.05.13

Bath eased to a bonus point victory over Worcester at The Rec.

Peter Stringer and Rob Webber went over for the hosts in the first half, only for three penalties from late stand-in Danny Gray to reduce the arrears.

But Stephen Donald, who missed three conversions, slotted an easy penalty to make it 13-9 at half-time.

And Bath ran riot after the break, Tom Biggs going over before two tries from Horacio Agulla, both converted by Tom Heathcote, put the result beyond doubt.

Worcester were forced into a late change, losing stand-off Andy Goode, who was violently sick in the warm-up after falling victim to a gastric bug in the visiting camp.

His deputy Gray was similarly stricken, kicking his three goals. But Worcester could not prevent Bath, who came into the game on the back of four consecutive cup wins, earning their first Premiership win since November.

Stringer, on loan from Munster, forced his way over the line after six minutes to score his third try in as many games.
