    Munster's JJ Hanrahan gets caught and when he goes to ground there is Sam Underhill in familiar position to get over the ball quickly and secure the turnover.

    Bath 35-14 Munster

    A couple of errors creeping in from both sides as he head into the closing stages.

    Bath wing Joe Cokanasiga spills a kick and Munster have a scrum.

    They really need to score soon if they are to get anything, even a bonus point, out of this one.

    Bath 35-14 Munster

    A series of reset scrums on the Bath five metre line comes to an with a home penalty - relief abounds at The Rec.

    And Johann van Graan decides that is the opportune moment to make wholesale changes, with Santi Carreras among the new additions.

    Try - Scarlets 16-17 Bristolpublished at 55 mins

    Louis Rees-Zammit

    Scarlets number eight Fletcher Anderson, who has been so impressive, fails to claim the restart.

    Bristol make them pay.

    They attack in the 22, Benhard Janse van Rensburg goes close and then the ball is flung out to Louis Rees-Zammit.

    He catches on his knees and reaches over to get to the line.

    The Wales wing - to panto boos when his name is announced as the scorer - puts Bears back in front, although the conversion slides wide and it's only a one-point lead.

    Bath 35-14 Munster

    Another warning from the referee to Bath captain Ben Spencer as Bath defend their line.

    We seem to have watched that scene quite a few times tonight.

    Bath turn the ball over though when play restarts - great defence from the hosts!

    We've just seen Bath's Will Stuart making his way around the touchline with his foot in a protective boot and on crutches - let's hope it's not as bad as it looks and he is back on a rugby pitch again soon.

    Sam Costelow

    'Sosban Fach' rings out as Scarlets win back-to-back penalties.

    They opt to go for goal again, as the supporters change to 'Bread of Heaven'.

    Costelow drills it between the posts. Great strike and Scarlets are on top.

    Sam Costelow

    Sam Lousi charges down a kick, Sam Worsley scrambles to claim the ball but Bristol go off their feet.

    Scarlets go for goal and Costelow kicks them into the lead for the first time.

    Bath 35-14 Munster

    Horrible floated pass for Munster wing Thaakir Abrahams as he is lined-up by Bath full-back Tom de Glanville and sent into touch.

    But the visitors have it back again and have another penalty - this time Thomas du Toit gives it away at the breakdown.

    Here we go again as Munster kick to the corner.

    Can they make this one count?

    Bath 35-14 Munster

    Edwin Edogbo scored Munster's first try and has performed well - he's a big and powerful unit.

    He takes a rest now though as Munster send on Ruadhan Quinn for the remainder.

    A Bath tackle off the ball give JJ Hanrahan another opportunity to get Munster into Bath's 22.

  10. No try - Scarlets 10-12 Bristolpublished at 46 mins

    Bristol look to be going nowhere but suddenly inject pace into the attack and work their Fijian wing Kalaveti Ravouvou in down the left.

    Pass looked forward by Tom Jordan and it will be checked...

    Definitely forward. No try and it's still 12-10 to the Bears.

    That review took way, way too long. In fact, that has been a theme of what has been a long night.

    9.20pm and there's still 33 minutes to play.

    Bath 35-14 Munster

    What's going on here? Ten minutes into the second half and we haven't had any points scored.

    Well, I don't think we could expect an exact copy of the first period.

    It's more of midfield battle at present as the sides try to seize the momentum.

    JJ Hanrahan sends a kick into Bath territory.

    Scarlets 10-12 Bristol

    Ellis Mee runs free down the left after an Eddie James offload and jinks into the 22, where he is slammed by a cover tackle.

    Could he have found a try-scoring pass?

    Scarlets keep attacking but the ball goes forward and Bristol escape.

    Terrific start by the home side.

    Sam Costelow gets us back under way.

    It's 15 versus 15 with Bill Mata back out there after his eventful first half.

    HT: Scarlets 10-12 Bristol

    Scarlets had 61% possession and 58% territory in the first half but it's Bristol that lead by two points at the break.

    Ellis Genge got on the wrong side of the officials at the scrum. The England prop will hope that changes after the break.

    Scarlets have some real impact on their bench in the shape of Springboks hooker Marnus van der Merwe, dynamic flanker Dan Davies and Wales centres Joe Hawkins and Joe Roberts.

    Bath 35-14 Munster

    Munster make a mess of the line-out and Bath can clear.

    Sam Underhill came on for Guy Pepper at the break and immediately announces himself into the action with a trademark strong tackle.

    Munster changed two at the break with Alex Nankivell on alongside ex-Leinster prop Michael Ala'alatoa who makes his club debut.

    Bath 35-14 Munster

    JJ Hanrahan kicks deep into Bath territory and Munster will have a line-out five metres out.

    There's another talking to for Bath skipper Ben Spencer over his side's discipline from the referee.

    The action is back under way at The Rec.

    What does this half have in store for us?

    Scarlets 10-12 Bristol

    Gareth Davies looks to pass the ball for Scarlets against BristolImage source, Huw Evans Picture Agency

    Scrambling defence by Scarlets to deny Bristol before the break.

    Bears started superbly to go 12-0 up thanks to a Bill Mata double but the Fijian then saw yellow.

    Scarlets have got themselves right back into it and the game is in the balance as Dwayne Peel and Pat Lam offer some pearls of wisdom.

  19. No try - Scarlets 10-12 Bristolpublished at 38 mins

    Sam Costelow puts Fletcher Anderson running free with a short pop pass - was it forward? - and Scarlets are into the 22.

    They carry hard through Macleod and Lousi to win another penalty advantage.

    Scarlets keep playing and Gareth Davies and lock Lousi combine to put young full-back Jac Davies over down the right.

    Cracking score.

    Costelow's conversion is wide right and it's a three-point game... but wait. TMO again.

    The footage shows that the pass by Costelow was indeed forward.

    For the second time they have a try chalked off after the conversion.

  20. Half-timepublished at 20:49 GMT 6 December 2025

    Bath 35-14 Munster

    The referee's whistle sounds to bring an utterly breathless first 40 to a close.

    The Rec crowd have had their money's worth there that's for sure - they've forgotten all about the driving rain.

    Bath raced into a 28-0 lead inside 20 minutes, Munster hit back before Bath added a fifth try and there was still time for Craig Casey to nip over to give his side a glimmer of hope.

    Oh and we've had a yellow card apiece too.

    Grab a cuppa but do not miss this second half!
