Bath bid for Worcester Warriors trio - report

Bath Rugby have set their sights on three of Worcester Warriors' star players, according to a report by The Rugby Paper.

Johann van Graan's side has suffered three straight defeats to start the new season and looking to add depth to their squad by snapping up three Worcester Warriors stars.

The report states that Bath has launched bids to sign Worcester flanker and captain Ted Hill, prop Rory Sutherland and centre Ollie Lawrence.

Worcester Warriors were put under administration last week with their Premiership match against Gloucester was called off. 

Players and staff were then not paid their September wages on Friday. Players will now have to serve a 14 days' notice of termination of their contract if they wish to leave the club.

The other option is for them to sign short-term loan deals to secure a move, something the club would have to approve.

Bath's poor start to the new season hasn't been helped by injuries to the likes of Sam Underhill and Beno Obano. 

Ted Hill and Rory Sutherland joining the side would certainly help turn things around for Johann van Graan while Ollie Lawrence has been consistently good for Worcester Warriors in recent seasons.
