After tearing his groin against Exeter two months ago, Russell's performance against Sale was his best since returning from injury
After tearing his groin against Exeter two months ago, Russell's performance against Sale was his best since returning from injuryat Twickenham next weekend. There are long-serving forwards Tom Dunn and Charlie Ewels at The Rec who have been waiting since 2015 to be able to say that.
Spencer, the former Saracen and now Bath’s captain, had the more eye-catching moments in the semi-final, including the clever diagonal kick towards the corner that forced Sale into conceding the line-out from which Niall Annett scored a try and Russell nailed the difficult conversion for the winning 31-23 lead..
The home form of Premiership semi-final history held good – it’s now 41 semi-finals played, and still just six away wins.
