Bristol Bears will be without three of their biggest stars on Friday night when play-off chasing Gloucester Rugby come to Ashton Gate in Round 23 of the 2021/22 Gallagher Premiership.
Director of rugby Pat Lam has confirmed centre Semi Radradra, full-back Charles Piutau and England international tighthead Kyle Sinckler will all miss the West Country derby match with the Cherry and Whites.
Radradra’s season is over with the Fijian international captain having an operation on his knee this week to get him back for the start of next season with another year on his contract at Bristol.
