Ep 217 - Immense in defence. Bears get down and dirty in Devon

Ep 216 - Beaten by Bordeaux but heads held high

Ep 215 - Attitude at altitude - Bears make European Cup play offs for first time in 3 years

The band is back together again as the boys chat over the gritty, but not particularly pretty new year win over Sale. It was a chilly night at the Gate and the fortress was certainly tested but thankfully the drawbridge was raised in the 72nd minute when Kela Ravouvou scored the deciding try.Lying fourth at the mid point of the Prem season is probably better than we could  have hoped for but we now seemed to have settled into a nice rhytmn with a level of physicality that is delivering results.Next up is a trip to the sunny High Veld and an appointment with the Vodacomm Bulls. There is a suspicion that the South Africans aren&apos;t massively keen on the Champions Cup so a victory in Pretoria would set things up nicely for the visit of Bordeaux Begles the following week. Lewis Rees-Zamit&apos;s contract extension is also discussed as is the suggestion that Moroni has the air of a Latino Henry Purdy.Join Pete, Miles and Lee for a cheeky beer and a bit of Bristol-related rugby banter...<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/617611/open_sms">Let us know what you think!</a>

They also discuss what this means for the visit of Sale next Friday and briefly look forward to the final European group games...
