Bristol Bears finished second to La Rochelle in Pool 4 of the European Rugby Challenge Cup to qualify for another trip to Stade Marcel Deflandre in the quarter-finals on March 31, live on BT Sport and beIN SPORTS. Here we pick out five key players for the Bears so far. Tom Pincus The ever-present Australian wing has been a key factor in Bristol’s first appearance in the last eight of the Challenge Cup since 2007. The 26-year-old led the pool stage tables for metres made (476) and breaks (17), the latter with ASM Clermont Auvergne’s Peter Betham, as well as featuring in the top 10 try-scorers (6) and carriers (57). Andy Uren The 23-year-old scrum-half immediately jumped into the top four try-scorers in this season’s Challenge Cup with his five in the record win over Enisei-STM in Round 6, which took his tally to six in five appearances. Uren, only the seventh player to achieve a five-timer in the competition’s history, is also in the top five of metres made (386) and breaks (11). https://twitter.com/ERChallengeCup/status/1096114432319676416 Callum Sheedy Sheedy set a club record with his 11 conversions in the victory over Enisei-STM in January and now has 55 points to his name from 23 conversions and three penalties to lie second among the leading points-scorers. The 23-year-old fly-half isn’t just a goal-kicker, though. His nine offloads in six matches mean he is also second in that category along with Agen’s Antoine Miquel. Ryan Edwards Edwards played in only half of Bristol’s pool games, but his tenacious and elusive running saw him grab five tries, including a hat-trick in the Round 6 win over Enisei-STM, to climb into the top 10 try-scorers for this season. The experienced 28-year-old wing also appears in the top 10 tables for breaks (11) and defenders beaten (21). Piers O’Conor The 23-year-old centre’s power has been evident in both attack and defence in the Bears’ Challenge Cup campaign so far. Not only has the England Under-20 back made 63 carries in his five appearances and made nine breaks, but he has also made five turnovers. In addition, O’Conor finished the pool stage in style with three tries in the back-to-back games against Enisei-STM.
