Team news: Bristol Bears vs Harlequins - GP R20

The All Black makes a timely return to the starting lineup, replacing the injured Sam Jeffries, in the only change from last week’s emphatic victory over Northampton Saints.

Luatua co-captains the side with scrum half Harry Randall in BS3. Charles Piutau continues at full-back following his dazzling display last time out, while among the system players, Joe Joyce returns from the injury sustained against Bath at The Rec in round 18.

In the midfield, Semi Radradra is set for his 50^th first-team appearance for the club.

The club is saddened to announce the passing of Callum Sheedy’s father, Phil this week. Our thoughts and prayers are with Callum, his mother Jackie, sister Sinead and the whole of the Sheedy family at this sad time.
