They're obviously well-coached, well-prepared.

But I actually thought Carreras coming on, and I thought Finn Russell had some brilliant moments in the game on Friday night, but I actually thought Carreras coming on gave Bath more...

I thought they looked a bit more fluid with Carreras because he was able to get out the back of that second pod and be that extra player and bring Oli Lawrence.

Oli Lawrence had loads of touches, didn't he, in the second half.

I actually thought they were a little bit sticky in that first half, whereas Carreras came on, added that momentum.

So yeah, there's a possibility that's the case.

But when you've got a squad that good, Jim, I don't think...

it's probably a little bit of a stretch to expect them not to be as slick as they should be.

It's a big thing that they do, Goody, in training, is that they're put under so much pressure

almost more pressure on a Wednesday or whatever, two days before a game training session where it's quick, it's sharp, it's just moving from set piece to set piece or loose ball to loose ball.

And then, so if you put under more pressure than you are going to be on a Saturday or a Friday night, almost the game becomes slightly easier and it's not going to be as hectic.

It's not going to be as quick.

And then all of a sudden the game slows down.

So that's another skill and another, we said it a few weeks ago, didn't we?

I still state,

that I still think the best coached team and the best prepared team in Europe is Northampton Saints.

Because you look at some of the players like Wright, Hooker, Lockett, Prowse.

Nobody really knows them, but they come on and they look...

brilliant players they look like they've got great hands they look like they're physical and their whole game that first 30 minutes Goody as you said it just went north south didn't it and I know they scored lots of lovely tries and moved the ball into the wide channels but they were attacking inside shoulders you look how many wide passes did they throw on the weekend hardly any not many

And every pass with them is short.
