Overview

  • He was shown a yellow card late in the first half after a tussle with a Gloucester opponent, with both players sin‑binned.
  • Bristol ran in six tries in the Premiership Rugby Cup victory to secure their first win of the season.
  • Gloucester trailed 40-5 before a late surge of three tries earned the hosts a bonus point.
  • Asked about autumn selection, Steve Tandy said he "wouldn't rule anything out" regarding Rees‑Zammit's inclusion.
