After last week’s win over Exeter Chiefs U18, Bath remain top of the table with four wins and a draw. In the front row, Theo Lewis-Zdybel and Malachi Randolph comes into start after featuring off the bench last week, with Ned Cartwright retaining his place at tighthead. The second row sees Pippo Hurrell come into the starting XV for the first time this season, to partner with the retained Ben Allen. The back row sees Alex Yeasbley and Georgia Faosilivia retained at six and eight, whilst Harry Hellier comes into the side having played off the bench in the last two rounds. Ollie Lewis is named at half-back, partnering co-captain Max Hooper at fly-half. Declan Treacey, also co-captain, and Aston Barrington-Hibbert provide continuity in the midfield. The back three features Ryan Carr and Tom Meredith on the wings, with Cynyr MacRae remaining at full-back. Logan Jarvie, Jack Williams and Sid Moore will provide their impact from the bench, alongside Henry Ball and Charlie Greenhough to complete this week’s replacement forwards. Oscar Harrison, Cade Comer and Rhuari Hill take the final bench spots as Bath’s three replacement backs. The game kicks off at Kingston Park on Saturday 17 January (15:00). #### TEAM **Bath Rugby U18**
