Connacht Womens team named for Ulster trip
Connacht Womens head coach Brian McClearn has made two changes to his starting XV for tomorrow's Womens Interprovincial Championship game with Ulster in Belfast.
 
In the pack there's a return to the lineup for Denise Redmond who partners Tara Buggies in the second row - a move which sees captain Nichola Fryday return to the number 8 jersey.
 
The second change is in the back three with Mairead Coyne named at full-back and Aoibheann Reilly shifting to the wing.
 
The game is the team's last of the round robin stage before the semi-finals on the weekend of the 14th September. The final placings of the group stage will determine who will play who for a spot in the decider a week later.
