In this week's show we discuss Jake Armstrong's contract extension and the strength in depth we have at tight head. We touch on the rumour that Bath scrum half Chris Cook has been linked with Bristol Bears and the news that players and staff are taking a 25 per cent pay cut.

We also pick out the opposition players that have impressed us in games against Bristol this season. Do you agree with our selections from Bath, London Irish, Worcester Warriors and Harlequins?

This edition was recorded by phone due to the current social isolation guidance as a result of Coronavirus. Apologies for the quality of one of the lines this week.
