Sale forward James Phillips has called time on his 15-year professional career after suffering an horrific jaw break in September.
Phillips, 34, began his career at Bristol, debuting in the 2007/08 campaign, and went on to play for Exeter Chiefs, London Scottish, Bristol again and Bath before signing for the Sharks in 2018.
In what proved his last full season, the No 8 - who could also player at flanker or in the second row - was integral as the club reached the Premiership play-offs.
