Three England Exiles Shine for Bath as Steve Bortwick watches on

Cokanasiga Makes a Statement

Joe Cokanasiga wasted no time in making his mark on the new season, scoring a try just five minutes into the match. After a powerful carry by Ted Hill, Cokanasiga finished the move with a strong, decisive run, silencing critics and showcasing his potential.

With Finn Russell adding the conversion, Bath continued to build on their early momentum. Fans were quick to praise the winger, with one remarking, “You’re not stopping the big man!” Another added, “Still haven’t worked out how Cokanasiga hasn’t played for England more—he’s a quality operator.”

Conclusion

Bath’s emphatic win over Northampton sends a clear message to the rest of the Premiership. With key players like Spencer, Hill, and Cokanasiga firing on all cylinders, the team looks set for a strong campaign, shaking off the disappointment of last season’s final loss and setting their sights firmly on silverware.
