Wallace left out of Ulster squad

Paddy Wallace has been left out of the Ulster squad to face Leinster in the Magners League at Ravenhill this weekend.

The move may be in line with the IRFU's Player Management Programme, which could also see Michael Cheika give some of his internationals a break.

Jonny Shiels has been called up in the only change to the 25-man Ulster panel for Saturday's tie.

ULSTER SQUAD (V Leinster):

FORWARDS: Nigel Brady, Brendon Botha, Bryan Young, Ed O’Donoghue, Andy Kyriacou, Stephen Ferris, Robbie Diack, Chris Henry, Willie Faloon, Tamaiti Horua, Tom Court, Dan Tuohy, Ryan Caldwell, Declan Fitzpatrick.

BACKS: Timoci Nagusa, Darren Cave, Simon Danielli, Ian Whitten, Isaac Boss, Ian Humphreys, Andrew Trimble, Paul Marshall, Clinton Schifcofske, Niall O’Connor, Jonny Shiels.
