(Reuters) - Scarlets have forfeited Saturday's European Champions Cup match against Bristol Bears with 32 players set to come out of COVID quarantine only a day before the game, the Welsh rugby side said on Tuesday.
Scarlet have only 14 fit players, including seven players from their developmental squad, with the rest undergoing a 10-day quarantine in Belfast after returning from South Africa, where they were due to play in the United Rugby Championship.
