Pat Lam is set to have new signing Elliott Stooke, wingers Luke Morahan and Ioan Lloyd, and number eight Fitz Harding available for selection for Bristol Bears’ opening game of the European Challenge Cup away at USA Perpignan.
Towering second-row Stooke joined the club a couple of weeks ago on a short-term deal as injury cover for Joe Joyce.
Stooke found himself out of work having completed a run of games for the Barbarians who selected him for the series of exhibition games following Wasps’ collapse into administration earlier this season which saw all the club’s employees made redundant.
