The Ulster Rugby Medical Performance team has issued a squad update ahead of Saturday’s Round 4 Heineken Champions Cup fixture versus Sale Sharks at Kingspan Stadium.
Luke Marshall (chest) and Iain Henderson (concussion) sustained injuries during Saturday's Heineken Champions Cup match against Stade Rochelais at Stade Marcel Deflandre. As a result, both players will be unavailable for this week’s home game against Sale Sharks.
Jake Flannery is also currently unavailable for selection having sustained a hamstring injury during training last week.
Billy Burns suffered a calf injury during the pre-match warm-up in La Rochelle. His fitness for selection this week will be monitored through the coming week.
Squad updates in association with The Ulster Independent Clinic.

The ref gave two penalty tries against Leinster.
We could have done with him in LR.

He had a bit of a random one - also ignoring the most flagrant deliberate knock-on / yellow card / pen try that I’ve ever seen!

A couple of big questions for me this weekend :-
- Ulster's best performance since the 1st half at the RDS was the one time when there was little to no expectation of a win. Sale at home is different. Can they handle it mentally?
- Ulster's attacking game has regressed in recent week. Countless incursions into the 22 yielding nothing and not able to make big line breaks further out. Will this improve?

We've lost a lot of top staggers recently.

Could Dave Ewers help with this? Great ball carrier. He loves a latch, apparently.
