Premiership bound.

High-flying Championship leaders Bristol have announced nine more new signings ahead of next season as they look to make an impact on the Aviva Premiership.

Having been relegated last season, they decided to invest heavily in the summer, bringing in Pat Lam to take charge, and adding the like of Ian Madigan and Steven Luatua to their playing roster.

They’ve already captured the signature of former All Black Charles Piutau from Ulster ahead of next season, with the talented fullback set to be joined by at least nine more new players.

Former All Black John Afoa, Bristol hooker Shaun Malton, former Melbourne Rebels captain Nic Stirzaker, Gloucester prop Yann Thomas, former Connacht lock Ally Muldowney, former Worcester playmaker Tiff Eden, Leicester hooker Harry Thacker, Connacht flanker Jake Heenan and Samoan prop Jordan Lay are all set to join Bristol next season.

These lads mean business. Excited to see them in the Premiership next season.
