Bradley waits on injured players

Michael Bradley has been handicapped by having to wait on five players - captain Andrew Farley, Matt Lacey, Paul Warwick, Matt Mostyn and Ray Hogan - to prove their fitness ahead of Saturday's European Challenge Cup quarter-final second leg tie with Grenoble at the Sportsground (2pm).

Bradley has only been able to name a 27-man squad.

Connacht will take a 26-21 lead into the game and they will be wary of the knowledge of Grenoble coach Dean Richards and their ability out wide.

CONNACHT SQUAD (v Grenoble):

Forwards: Ray Hogan, Peter Bracken, A J Clarke, Stephen Knoop, Bernard Jackman, John Fogarty, Andrew Farley (Capt), Pieter Myburgh, Christian Short, Michael Swift, Matt Lacey, John Muldoon, John O'Sullivan, Paul Neville Brendan O'Connor.

Backs: Tom Tierney, Chris Keane, Mike Walls, Eric Elwood, Paul Warwick, David Slemen, Ted Robinson, Conor McPhillips, Darren Yapp, Niall O'Brien, James Downey, Matt Mostyn.
