It will be interesting to see who, if any, of the returning 5 are involved Sunday as returning to full training and featuring straight off are two different things. Might be tough to keep Bundee out though, sure he's chomping at the bit to get back at it.

Only 5 players out. Did that happen in the past in Connacht?

Our overall record (8 wins, 1 draw, 4 defeats) isn't too bad but our away record against Treviso is appalling - 2 wins, 1 draw, 3 defeats.
Big ask to get the 5-pointer, which we absolutely need given last weekend's failure to garner same. Treviso have 2 wins & 5 defeats (2 losing bonus points) so as often as not they're not pushovers. They'll be without their international players though and got pounded by Leinster in their last home game so that, and the fact that we'll hardly be taking them for granted, gives us some hope of the full complement of match points.
It'll be interesting to see what way we line out if Roux isn't available, maybe Cannon as TH lock/distributor (he did that in the Zebre match) and Dillane (assuming he's fit) out wide.
