In this week's show we discuss the much improved 32-15 win against Sales Sharks at Ashton Gate. Sale have been a bit of a bogey team for us over the past few seasons, but a much improved Bears picked up the try-bonus-point win with the last play of the game.
Here our thoughts on the tactics, performance and which individuals shone for us. There's also the chant that never was and the mysterious reappearnce of a regal mitten!
We also look ahead to the game against State Francais next Saturday in the Champions Cup. Will Pat be tempted to shuffle the deck or stick with a winning squad - hear our thoughts.
All this and more with Tony, Pete and Miles.
