Connacht to rely on Warwick for inspiration

Coach Michael Bradley will look for inspiration from out-half Paul Warwick, a last-minute withdrawal last week, if Connacht are to overturn a 14-point deficit against Narbonne in the first round-second leg of the European Challenge Cup at the Sportsground on Saturday.

Chris Keane, in for Conor O'Loughlin, will make it an entirely changed half-back combination and Conor McPhillips will step onto the left wing for Ted Robinson.

CONNACHT (v Narbonne): M McHugh, M Mostyn, D Yapp, J Downey, C McPhillips, P Warwick, C Keane; R Hogan, B Jackman, S Knoop, A Farley, C Short, M Swift, M Lacey, J Muldoon.

Replacements: John Fogarty, D McFarland, M Carroll, P Neville, C O'Loughlin, E Elwood, T Robinson.
