So what's the chances this goes ahead and when will we hear? Would assume the positive cases from last week are not available and leinster seem to have had plenty of cases as well.

https://www.the42.ie/leinster-leo-culle ... 0-Dec2021/LEINSTER HAVE RESUMED training today as they aim to fulfill Saturday’s scheduled United Rugby Championship meeting with Ulster in Belfast.
Leinster took a collective break from training last week as they looked to stop the spread of Covid-19 among their squad.
There are still many Leinster players and staff – including head coach Leo Cullen – isolating after recent positive Covid test results, but a “good chunk” of the squad resumed training today under senior coach Stuart Lancaster.
Cullen is due to complete his isolation period before the clash with Ulster on New Year’s Day [KO 7.35pm, TG4/URC TV] and he is hopeful that the game will go ahead as planned.
Look like Plug is getting his shot in first! Of course he’d be quite happy to have their 3rd or 4th XV play our Academy. This sends a message to the URC that if Ulster get a few more cases and seek a postponement they will be more likely to award the game/points to Leinster rather than have another messy postponement!UlsterNo9 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 28, 2021 11:55 pmhttps://www.the42.ie/leinster-leo-culle ... 0-Dec2021/LEINSTER HAVE RESUMED training today as they aim to fulfill Saturday’s scheduled United Rugby Championship meeting with Ulster in Belfast.

Sharing points for cancellations would seem like a fairer system to me and would surely go some way to preserving what integrity the competitions have left . What's the rational? Nobody's fault at the end of the day. I'm sure Leinster would agree.Hans Indaruck wrote: ↑Wed Dec 29, 2021 9:28 amLook like Plug is getting his shot in first!

Certainly a different tone than the Leinster " we are ready to play" in any event.
