Wales international hooker Elliot Dee is ‘in consideration’ for the big European Challenge Cup opener with Perpignan on Saturday in France, boss Dean Ryan has revealed.
Dee missed the United Rugby Championship defeats to Edinburgh and Glasgow after suffering an ankle injury against Australia at Principality Stadium.
However, the 27-year-old could now return while Ryan admitted flanker Basham and lock Carter are also back in the mix for the Stade Aime Giral fixture (kick-off 5.30pm UK time).
“Elliot is in consideration and is being walked through the week,” said Ryan.
Meanwhile, full-back Jordan Williams has had successful surgery this week on the broken right hand suffered in the loss at Scotstoun Stadium.
“Jordan had an operation after breaking three or the four bones across the back of his hand,” said Ryan.
“They have all had surgical repairs and eight to 10 weeks is a realistic return from an injury like that.”
