#7. Joe Batley to Bristol Bears
The 26-year-old, who can play in the second row and back row, returns to Ashton Gate after leaving Worcester Warriors.
Director of Rugby, Pat Lam, said: “It’s been a challenging time for Joe and his family, but we are pleased to be able to bring him back into a club and system he knows and enjoys.
“He’s grown and developed massively during his time in Worcester, and I know he will add real value to our team going forward.”
