The one major negative from Friday night's win away to Glasgow Warriors was the injury picked up by second row Quinn Roux towards the end of the first half. Following medical assessments at the weekend, it has been confirmed that the young South African dislocated his shoulder and will face a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
Aaron Dundon, Isa Nacewa and Sean O'Brien all came through their respective comeback games unscathed and they will also be in the frame again this week. Luke Fitzgerald, Eoin O'Malley and Dominic Ryan, meanwhile, will be given every opportunity to prove their fitness as they continue their rehab ahead of their comebacks, but this weekend looks set to come too soon once more for all three players.
