Bath's playoff hopes well and truly alive, if we win at HQ against Wasps we should get that much closer. One of the most nerve-racking final 10 minutes in recent memory, fingernails well and truly gone.

That leaves the table like this:

By all accounts, a hell of a game considering it was essentially Saints 2nd string for the last 20 minutes or so - Even then the big-big guns were still mostly missing.

Bath may well sneak themselves into the playoffs now with a sprinkling of some luck. Question is can their players survive 260 minutes of rugby in 7 days?
