Henderson to miss Ulster clash

Rob Henderson has been ruled out of the Munster team to face Ulster in the Celtic League semi-final at Lansdowne Road tomorrow. Henderson made his first start since the Lions’ Australian tour against Llanelli last weekend. Yesterday, however, the centre suffered knee and ankle injuries in training and will definitely miss the Ulster clash.

Munster coach Declan Kidney will also be without John Hayes and David Wallace and has been forced to make five changes to the side that beat Llanelli. John Kelly will replace Henderson, Peter Stringer returns after an ankle injury, Dominic Crotty is restored at full-back, Marcus Horan will come in at loosehead and Paul O'Connell comes in to partner captain Mick Galwey in the second row.

Ulster remain unchanged from the side that defeated Neath last weekend.
