Three Changes For Connacht

Connacht coach Steph Nel has made three changes for the Parker Pen Challenge Cup return with Narbonne on Sunday (3pm).

The one backline change sees Ted Robinson recalled to the side on the right-wing. In the pack, Marnus Uijs returns after injury, and in the back-row Michael Swift is recalled at openside, with John O’Sullivan moving to No.8.

Connacht must overturn a fifteen points deficit from the game in France if they are to secure a quarter-final place against either Pontypridd or Leeds Tykes.

The game goes ahead at Corinthian Park, Cloonacauneen on Sunday afternoon (kick-off 3pm).

Connacht (v Narbonne): M. McHugh; T. Robinson, D.Yapp, S. Moore (capt.), W. Munn; E. Elwood, E. Reddan; R. McCormack, M. Uijs, P. Bracken; D. Browne, R. Frost; C. Rigney, M. Swift, J. O’Sullivan.
