Connacht drawing on experience of last season ahead of Belfast trip

This season, Connacht have won two of their opening three games at home to the Sharks and away to Scarlets and also picked up two bonus points in the opening round loss away to Munster, scoring 13 tries in the process.

INTERPRO: Ulster Head Coach Richie Murphy and Connacht Head Coach Pete Wilkins have rung the changes for their interpro clash Saturday at Kingspan Stadium.

Connacht head coach Pete Wilkins reckons they have learned enough from last season to ensure a bright start to the campaign doesn’t fall away this time round.

Last season was Wilkins’ first season in charge after six years as an assistant coach at the Sportsground and they made a dream start to his reign with victories over Ospreys, Glasgow Warriors and Ulster.
