Source: Morgan Treacy/INPHO A wild first half at the Sportsground included seven tries as the visiting Ospreys played their part and though the second half was scoreless, there were still moments like Jack Carty’s delightful cover work and offload under pressure as Connacht defended their seven-point lead.

At the very least, he’d be back for the Six Nations. The initial prognosis was an ACL strain and a bit of bone bruising.

Connacht steal it at the death with dramatic try in the game s last attack Connacht beat Ulster 26-24 at Kingspan Stadium in the opening game of the Rainbow Cup.

Image: Morgan Treacy/INPHO Image: Morgan Treacy/INPHO Garry Doyle reports from Kingspan Stadium THIS WAS A superb game, one that gave us just about everything: tries, comebacks, momentum shifts and enough drama to stop us mocking the Rainbow Cup for the time being. Connacht did it the hard way, coming from behind in the second-half, ultimately collecting the points when Conor Fitzgerald, their replacement out-half, delivered a perfectly weighted grubber kick that bounced awkwardly ....
