Vunipola back for Bears hunt

BILLY VUNIPOLA makes his return today with the opposition under orders not to give him the ball. The England No.8 (below) broke an arm playing South Africa in June and Saracens ease him back into action off the bench at home to Bristol. It is good news for Eddie Jones, who names a training g squad on Thursday week before England play the Boks again on November 3. Less so for newly promoted Bristol, who shocked Bath in their opener but face a step-up in challenge with eight changes to their side. “Billy is a damaging ball carrier,” said Bears captain Steve Luatua. “They will grow an arm and a leg having him back, but I’ve a lot of confidence in our team. “We’ll stick to our structures and hopefully not give him the ball at all.”
