3. James Dun

  • Age: 21
  • Club: Bristol Bears
  • Position: Flanker
  • Dad: Andy Dun (England)

Like father like son. James Dun has captaincy credentials just as his father Andy, a flanker, did. He led Wasps in 1984/85 and Bristol from 1988/90 as well as playing for England U19 and U23 before winning a full cap against Wales in 1984. 

Dun made the step up from the Integrated Academy to the Bears first team squad on July 1st, 2020. The versatile forward impressed during a loan spell at GKIPA Championship side, Hartpury during the 2019/20 campaign.  A lineout specialist, Dun will be looking to push for a first team place at Ashton Gate next season.
