And to do that, you need the strength and depth and the squad.

I just go back to my point where you have all of these changes, right?

Johan van Graam has clearly got a great culture at the club, but it's managing...

them players and go in and they've got through two games now.

Let's say it how it is.

They've got through two of these games.

They weren't comfortable.

That maybe puts them in a good position when it gets to the latter stages of the Prem, but specifically the Champions Cup.

But you look at Bordeaux, you look at Toulouse and you look at Leinster and even Toulon now, obviously we can throw them in who they're going to be playing against next.

Like they are set in the way in which they play.

And I think for Bath to scrape through these two games, and I say that with all due respect, but they have scraped through this one specifically.

Obviously against Saracens, it was more than a scrape through.

But yeah, I think Johan needs to find the confidence to be able to pick his starting team and being like, this is the team.

And maybe he already knows it.

I think props are different bigs.

I think props and big locks who can add power are different to having a player that starts at a 10, 12 or a nine that has complete control of the game throughout.

So I don't think Thomas de Toin necessarily would be the one where you're thinking, right, you know, was it right to not start him?

Because look what happened against Saracens when he came on.

For me, it is the Maxa Jomos, it is the Carreras, it's these players where I'm like, why are they not starting?

That's just, you know, from my perspective.
