Having spoken to Todd, I know how ambitious the Club is, which is one of the main factors behind my decision. I’m fortunate to have won the Premiership with Exeter, and with the world-class talent in Bath’s ranks, I’m confident that we can put ourselves in contention for silverware over the next couple of seasons.”

JOE COKANASIGA

Cokanasiga was one of the few bright sparks for the Exiles this season, leading their try-scoring charts with four.

Cokanasiga said: "I'm genuinely excited to be joining Bath. I feel the environment at the Club is exactly what I need to grow and develop as a player both on and off the field and ultimately achieve my international ambitions. There is huge potential to achieve success, and I’m really looking forward to spending my long-term future here.”
