The 27-year-old, 118kg prop played for London Welsh, Leicester Tigers and Wasps in Gallagher Premierhsip Rugby before moving to France last year. Whilst at Welsh and Tigers, a playing colleague was Sharks Academy Transition Coach Neil Briggs.

He made 24 appearances for Narbonne last season in the French Pro D2

Bristow said: “It’s a bit different at Carrington from the South of France, but great to be back in the U.K.

“The opportunity to come and play for a Gallagher Premiership club is not one to turn down.

“I’m looking forward to getting to know all the lads here, and becoming a member of the Sharks front row.”

Director of Rugby Steve Diamond added: “Tom’s been on our radar for some time, and he’s well known to Neil Briggs. We will offer him a warm welcome to the Sharks squad and he will significantly improve our options in the front row.”

Highlanders vs Crusaders: Jordan is Cullen-esque, another Test bolter

Haha what a one dimentional post… They played the Highlanders mate. Didnt the Chiefs beat them by more last week? So for all the 10 Crusaders you have nominated Ill just say that the Chiefs must have been better so therefore deserve to be ABs ahead of the Saders players. Is that the logic we are using? Are the Highlanders, in 10th, the benchmark?

Saders played well, and its great to see that after the disaster of last year, but just settle down mate.

USA embracing ‘pressure’ in final event before World Championship

In 2024, I received a substantial tax refund, which I saw as a golden opportunity to improve my financial situation. Eager to invest, I became interested in Bitcoin, a digital currency that many believe represents the future of finance. Unfortunately, my excitement led me to a fraudulent company that promised incredible returns on investments. Their persuasive tactics and seemingly legitimate operations drew me in, but it didn’t take long for me to realize that I had been deceived, and my hard-earned money $572,000 had vanished.Feeling devastated and hopeless after losing such a significant amount, I reached out to a friend who had faced a similar ordeal. They recommended a company called GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , which specializes in recovering lost Bitcoin. Although I was skeptical, my desperation pushed me to contact them for help.From the very first interaction with GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , I was impressed by their understanding and willingness to help. Their team guided me through the recovery process, providing the support I needed during this challenging time. They explained each step clearly and kept me informed throughout the entire journey. Their dedication rekindled my hope of recovering my lost funds.Thanks to the diligent efforts of GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , I was able to reclaim my stolen Bitcoin. This experience not only restored my financial situation but also taught me invaluable lessons about the importance of conducting thorough research before making any investments.

Kini Naholo powers Hurricanes to upset win over Brumbies In Canberra

Hard to tell how quick this guy (Naholo) is, but lord he takes some stopping! Could he be the guy who takes Clarke and Telea out of AB left wing contention? and given how poor Reece has been in the AB jersey (sad, because I love his energy) could he take the right wing slot?

Well said Rob Penney. The leadership group have helped set the foundation. Codie Taylor is always a leader. Captain David Havili and some times captain on the field, Will Jordan have been incredible. There influence is huge.

Crusaders flex muscles in attritional win over Highlanders

You obviously have never watched Richie Mo’unga play. He was a magician at 10 for the Crusaders in there title run 2017-23. Great defence, tries, try set ups , goals. Richie Mo’unga was one of the great line breaking 10’s.

I do care actually. Players come from lots of different places to the Crusaders. It is a great place. Hence the amount of titles we have won. You are picking a pointless and diversionary argument.

Highlanders vs Crusaders: Jordan is Cullen-esque, another Test bolter

Well said regarding the 10 position at the Crusaders. Rivez Reihana seamlessly slotted in when he came on in Dunedin. Made goalkicking look easy.We know James O’Connor’s worth , that is not just because of his winning kick last week against the Blues.

Great article. In listing 10’s , Super and international of the past. Andrew Mehrtens was left out. He was the key driver in our first 3 titles ‘98, ‘99 and 2000. He was part of 2 other title winning teams, 2002 went through unbeaten.Mehrts was a great.
