 Gloucester Rugby Club : Bath pull plug on Powergen hopes

Bath won a penalty in front of the sticks and Chris Malone shaped to have a free shot with a drop-goal.
Bath were able to weather the storm and sealed the victory when Malone landed a late penalty to take the home side into the semi-finals after another full-on dose of west country tribalism.
