Dean Ryan has lost two key back row players to long term injuries

Gloucester head coach Dean Ryan says Apo Satala could sign permanently after playing as a trialist on Saturday.

The Fijian played for Leeds last season and came on for the last quarter of the 30-8 friendly win against Glasgow.

Ryan told BBC Radio Gloucestershire: "We've got some great back row forwards in terms of work rate but the dynamism of Qera and Delve is a loss.

"We'll miss some of their power running and we've been looking around to see if we can add a mix which will help us."
