- Glasgow into Champions Cup last 16 after beating Toulon
- Gloucester and Edinburgh both win in Challenge Cup
Ireland Sevens star Andrew Smith helped Connacht keep their Investec Champions Cup hopes alive as they beat 14-man Bristol and ended the visitors’ hopes in the competition.
Smith scored the fourth try in a 27-10 bonus-point victory at the Dexcom Stadium with Shayne Bolton, Jack Aungier and Caolin Blade having crossed earlier. Bristol were a man down for 67 minutes after Josh Caulfield’s dismissal for a stamp on the Ireland prop Finlay Bealham.
