Bath pick up two more Worcester players
By Ian Cameron
Bath have picked up two more Worcester players, adding to the number of former Warriors that have made the move to Somerset.
The West Country Gallagher Premiership club have already signed Ollie Lawrence, Fin Smith and Fergus Lee-Warner on permanent deals. Negotiations are also ongoing with Valeriy Morozov and Ted Hill.
The club have now confirmed that they have captured the signature of fly-half Billy Searle and utility back Jamie Shillcock on short-term deals.
"The duo will provide injury cover while Orlando Bailey (facial injury), Piers Francis (quad) and Tom de Glanville (hamstring) are sidelined," Bath said in a statement.
With Worcester now in administration, all players at the club are now free agents, with many still left to find new clubs.
Born in Exeter, Searle experienced National League rugby with Launceston and Plymouth Albion before enjoying spells with Bristol Bears, Wasps and, most recently, Worcester Warriors.
The 26-year-old has accumulated 216 points in 59 Gallagher Premiership appearances to date.
Shillcock, who can play fly-half or in the back three, came through the Worcester Academy and debuted aged 17 in the Greene King IPA Championship play-off semi-final second leg against London Scottish.
Capped three times in the 2016 U20 Six Nations for England, the 25-year-old was consistent member of the Warriors side for a number of years and has so far scored 182 points in 65 Premiership matches.

Nice going, Dobbo. You’ve, once again, managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. This version of the Stormers are ill-disciplined, mentally frail but, above all, poorly coached. You and your team of so-called coaches have failed us, the Stomers supporters and the players. Shape up or f*ck off.
Go to commentsI was the subject of a cryptocurrency heist. Some amount of bitcoin was stolen from my wallet and diverted to an unpermitted account. My wallet management was informed, however, they had me wait a week before responding through email. They didn’t offer any assistance; alternatively, they mentioned that my phone might have been compromised and told me to get in touch with the authorities who couldn't provide any solution to recover my bitcoin. When I was browsing through the internet trying to find a solution to get my stolen bitcoin back, I discovered a team of bitcoin recovery experts called Wizard James Recovery company. I then decided to contact them for assistance in getting my stolen money back. I have nothing but praise for Wizard James Recovery company because they were able to assist me in recovering the money that had been stolen. With the use of their sophisticated tools, Wizard James Recovery was able to determine how the transaction was carried out. I have my money back and I am very thankful to Wizard James Recovery company for their amazing service. If you have any issues related to mine. Kindly contact them via email.
