Connacht coach Michael Bradley has named a 25-man squad ahead of Saturday's Celtic Cup semi-final clash against Edinburgh at the Sportsground in Galway.
Bradley has to wait on a number of key players who are still doubtful with injury, none more so than the influential Eric Elwood. The fly half hopes to recover from a leg injury, while hooker Bernard Jackman and prop Fabien Boiroux wait on respective ankle and back injuries.
The game is arguably the biggest match in the province's history as Connacht strive to reach their first ever cup final. For that reason there is sure to be huge home support at the recently refurbished Sportsground.
Connacht(squad v Edinburgh):T. Allnutt, H. Bourke, F. Boiroux, D. Browne, T. Carter, A. Clarke, E. Elwood, A. Farley, J. Fogarty, D. Hewitt, R. Hogan, B. Jackman, M. McCarthy, D. McFarland, M. McHugh, C. McPhillips, S. Moore, M. Mostyn, J. O¹Sullivan, W. Munn, P. Neville, C. O¹Loughlin, M. Swift, M. Walls, D. Yapp.
