Captain Steven Luatua has recovered from a dislocated wrist to be in contention to face Sale Sharks on Saturday in the Heineken Champions Cup.
Ahead of the crucial European double header in the last 16 of the competition, that will see the Bears head to the AJ Bell Stadium on Saturday in the first leg before hosting Sale the following Friday night, Bristol director of rugby Pat Lam provided the hugely positive injury update.
“Steven will be available for selection this week,” Lam told a surprised press core in his midweek press conference.
