ANTHONY Watson leaving Bath could have huge consequences on and off the field and surely others will now follow with the state the club is in.
Watson is a brilliant player – unplayable on his day – but has struggled in recent years with his ACL injuries.
Bath have promising backs in Tom de Glanville, Max Ojomah and Orlando Bailey but their pack needs work. It is imperative they retain Sam Underhill when his contract comes up for renewal.
