Connacht v. Ulster - Sunday 23rd August

Decent looking starting XV, particularly like the notion of Porchy at 15. Lad is absolutely rapid and we could see some Christian Cullen type running (the NZ version, not Munster) from him if we get some decent ball. If the pack are competitive and can create a platform, we can create all sorts of problems with that back three....

Hopefully no pack injuries, because we are lightweight in every sense on the bench..
Ulster have gone as strong as they can currently with their Starting XV,and the bench is Serious.....
