Nathan White going through return to play protocols too so he may miss out, as may Jake Heenan who withdrew from last week's game during the warm-up. Ultan Dillane available for selection though.
Might get a look at our newest Dave then.
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?

November 1960, I was 11 months old and that's a f**king long time ago let me tell you! Are there any bright young things out there who can tell me what is the minimum nr of points that we need from these last four games bearing in mind that we play two top six sides? I'll be cocky and assume five from the Zebre game.

2 wins should do it, given the fixtures that Edinburgh and Cardiff have left:

(HOME/away):

Edinburgh: ZEBRE Leinster Munster CARDIFF
Cardiff: Scarlets DRAGONS Ospreys* Edinburgh

He's not out for the season. It's a joke.

I am the biggest optimist here, but when O'Connor and Williams left the pitch injured, I said End of game and end of season; I see no reason unfortunately to alter that opinion.
From the rolling glens of Antrim through the hills of Donegal we will stand and shout for Ulster as we win both scrum and maul from the lovely lakes of Fermanagh tae the shores of ould Lough Gall we will scream and shout for Ulster as we beat them one and all!

AOC shoulder dislocation and Nick groin says both possibly season ending. Only 3 players listed as definitely out for the rest of the season are Nelson, Tuohy and Faloon.
Tommy nearing fitness, just in time to watch the play-offs on tele.

Pretty thin on the ground from 4 to 8.
Franco. Robbie.
Hendy. Chris. Roger.

Or switch Robbie & Hendy.

Academy cover on bench. Hardly ideal when Connacht have no 10 and may well play a 9 man game.
