Bath Demolish Saracens in Record Premiership Win

In a dominant display, Bath Rugby secured a record-breaking 68-10 victory over Saracens in the Gallagher Premiership, solidifying their position at the top of the table. This win, which took place at the Recreation Ground, marked the heaviest-ever Premiership defeat for Saracens.

The match was significantly influenced by a red card shown to Saracens' Toby Knight just 14 minutes in, following a high and dangerous tackle on Bath's Ollie Lawrence. This reduction to 14 men severely hampered Saracens' chances, and Bath capitalized on the advantage.

Bath's Will Muir was a standout performer, scoring a hat-trick, while Joe Cokanasiga added a brace to the tally. Finn Russell had a stellar game, converting eight tries and orchestrating Bath's attack with precision. Other notable contributors included Thomas du Toit, Cameron Redpath, and Sam Underhill, who all scored tries.

Saracens' struggles were compounded by injuries to key players, including Theo McFarland and Tobias Elliott, and a yellow card to Liam Williams early in the game. Despite a late consolation try by Kapeli Pifeleti, Saracens were unable to recover from the early setbacks.

This victory extends Bath's winning streak to six league games and gives them a five-point lead at the top of the Gallagher Premiership as they enter 2025.

Top Scorers:
- Will Muir (3 tries)
- Joe Cokanasiga (2 tries)
- Finn Russell (8 conversions)
