IT’S BEEN REPORTED BY RUGBYPASS THAT BRISTOL BEARS ARE NOW IN ADVANCED TALKS TO BRING HARLEQUINS FLANKER LUKE WALLACE TO THE CLUB. The back-rower is one of a number of players set to be

released by Quins at the end of the season, as Head of Rugby Paul Gustard reshapes his squad in south-west London. Wallace would add to that core of English players being put together at

Ashton Gate, as well as bolstering the club’s stock of flankers, with George Smith’s contract set to end at the conclusion of the season. TRANSFER HEADLINES:
