Alongside the Romanians, Dragons were drawn alongside two European heavyweights, Top 14 outfit ASM Clermont-Auvergne and Premiership side Northampton Saints in Pool One of the competition.

 

Bristol Bears kick off their European Challenge Cup campaign on Saturday, 13th October when Italian side Zebre Rugby are the visitors to Ashton Gate. Pat Lam’s side make the return trip to Parma the following weekend (Saturday, 20th October.)
