The Bears took the lead in just in five minutes as they were awarded a penalty inside the Wolves’ half, and Jack Bergin slotted over from the tee.

Stirling pulled a try back in the 57th minute, with Angus Fraser battling his way over from close range.

And just three minutes later the visitors had the lead. The ball was worked out to the left by the backs and Ryan Southern had space to rush to the line and dive over.

Bergin then slotted a third penalty over, and the Bears lead once more.

With just eight minutes to go, the Wolves took back the lead. The ball was this time passed out to the right and Marcus Holden was on his own to finish off.

And right at the death Stirling secured the bonus point as Gregor Hiddleston was too strong for the home side’s defence and powered over.
