Connacht v Cardiff Rugby - United Rugby Championship

Connacht head coach Pete Wilkins expects to be without Ben Murphy for ‘around five to six weeks’.

The scrum-half had surgery this week to repair a fractured finger, which he suffered while training with the Ireland ‘A’ squad last week.

Leinster will have Ireland internationals Jack Boyle and Jimmy O’Brien available for their URC clash with Cardiff, but Ciaran Frawley will sit out Saturday’s game at the Aviva Stadium.
