Beanie provided the sting in last weeks match with two tries but Bails has set the target of being the divisions top try scorer. He may come up against Bristol old boy Luke Nabaro, no stranger to the try line at the Mem having racked up the tries for us, including a sequence of 13 tries in 4 games.

The pack has been reshuffled with the injuries to Rik and Joe El Abd, who’s injury was obviously worse than he thought at the time with Matt Styles and Ben (&) Gerry starting in the back row. And there is an enforced change in the backs following the recall of Molly Malone to the Bath camp where Hooky gets his chance to show what he can do.

The full Bristol Shoguns squad line up is

Marsden, Griffiths, Evans, Hawker, Bailey, Hook, Hodgson
Hilton (capt), Nelson, Hobson, Hunt, Hodge, Morgan, Styles Gerry

There are changes on the bench too with new signing Scott Bernard making his first appearance there alongside Hayward and Gray in the backs and Clarke, Clarke, Harris & Haag in the forwards.

Pertemps Bees have delayed naming their starting line up but will be looking to prove that their excellent start to the season, a 27-18 home win against Exeter Chiefs, was not a temporary flash in the pan.
