Mack Hansen and the rest of the Connacht squad that beat Ulster have all been confirmed fit and ready to go for Saturday's clash with DHL Stormers.
The Westerners’ 15-10 victory in Belfast on Friday night saw them book a BKT URC semi-final against the defending champions in Cape Town.
Monday’s medical update was short and sweet and the province confirmed that all 23 players would be good to travel.
The party is due to land in South Africa on Wednesday morning after a short stop-off in Doha.
Ireland wing Hansen clashed heads with team-mate John Porch in the 27th minute and needed stitches and passed a head injury assessment before returning the fray at the start of the second half.
It turns out the medics had their work cut out; a post on Instagram showed in graphic detail a deep cut to the 25-year-old's forehead.
"They stitched it, our doc Enda [Devitt] is pretty good with his hands," said Hansen.
"He stitched it up nice and quick and was able to fit in that and the HIA.
"I really didn't know what was going on. It wasn't that I was concussed or anything but it was just a really, really deep sting.
"It just stung heaps, like I got stung by a couple of bees, I don't really know. I think that's the best way to describe it.
"Then I felt blood coming down and it wasn't until after...they took my headgear off and the three doctors were like, 'oh, Jesus' and I was like, 'that can't be great'.
"They asked did I want to take a photo and I said yeah, and when they took it I was like, 'oh, show us the photo' and they were like, 'no, we'll show you after the game'.
"I understand why now because it was a deep sting, a deep cut. John Porch has a hard head, he's come off unscathed...he's already ugly enough so he didn't really need another [mark].
"Yeah, people were asking why I posted it and to be fair, I don't really know why. I thought it was kind of cool for people to see. I know when I see things like that, I'm like, 'oh, Jesus!'"
The TV cameras also caught the Australian in the tunnel afterwards on a video call on his phone, standing beside director of rugby Andy Friend. He revealed he was catching up with his family back home in Canberra.
"I was just talking to my dad, I normally give him a call after the game," he told RTÉ Sport.
"They always stay up and watch. I used to talk to them after every game so I like to still do that and get their thoughts on it. It makes me feel like they are here sometimes so that’s all it was.
"Him and Mum, they’ll tell me if I played like s*** or they tell me if I played all right. I find they are pretty good to get an honest review. That’s why I enjoy calling them after and seeing what they thought.
"That one was, thankfully, one to enjoy. Andy just happened to walk past and we were just talking about how tough a game it was. I was showing off my scar and just enjoying it. It was some feeling for sure."
Asked if he believed Connacht could go to the well again and replicate the intensity of the performance that beat Ulster, he said: "It's possible to do two, three, four, five, as many games in a row as we need, for sure.
"There's so much passion and fight behind this team, we know that we're underdogs every week.
"Even when we started winning so many games people were just waiting for us to fall, waiting for us to lose so we just kept going.
"So yeah, it's definitely possible for sure."
