THE CONNACHT team to meet Ulster in the Iaterprovincial Championship at Ravenhill next Saturday shows two changes from the side that lost to Munster last Saturday, but one of the alterations is enforced.

Nigel Carolan (Corinthians) will replace Nicky Barry (Clontarf) in the centre. Barry was concussed last Saturday and consequently will be out of the game for three weeks and will miss the rest of the series. Shane Leahy (Lansdowne) has been named in the second row for Mick O'Neill (Blackrock College), who goes to the replacement panel.

Rody Corrigan (Lansdowne) is also named in the replacements because of Carolan's promotion to the side.
