Bath have a “hunger” to win three trophies this season says assistant coach Andy Robinson ahead of the team’s Premiership Rugby Cup semi-final.
The Premiership leaders travel to Newcastle on Friday, looking to book a place in their first cup final of the campaign.
Bath are also still in European competition having exited the Champions Cup in January but dropped into the Challenge Cup, which returns next month.
“There’s a hunger but there’s an understanding of what the process is and an understanding that yes, that’s our goal, and it’s a goal to win three trophies still and to make sure that we keep winning,” Robinson told BBC Points West.
“That’s the goal but it’s about the performance.”
Bath have never progressed this far in the Premiership Rugby Cup before and only lost one of their six games in the pool stages of the competition to reach to the knockout stage top of their group.
They beat Harlequins 39-28 in the quarter-final last Friday.
Robinson said he valued that the players are focussed entirely on their next performance rather than thinking further ahead.
“You’ve got to get through Friday and you’ve got to win this game. In the end, you only get your hands on the trophy after winning two games from now,” Robinson said.
“It’s about understanding how to win this week. If we’re lucky enough to do that it’s about how we go and perform next week,” he said.
“I never really thought about winning trophies ever as a player, it was all about the next performance and that’s what I like about this group, it’s all about the next performance.”
