Ah, but what was Indiana Jones' real name?

According to the internet it's Henry Walton Jones. So Indiana is playing at 12, now I see! I can just see it now when he scores a try and the Clan bursts into humming the theme tune Dododo do dodo dooo!!!!!!!

Indeed, big boots to fill either way (JO'C and Ray), somewhere inbetweeen the two lads major areas of strength (JO'C on the deck and Ray big hits and support play) and he'll be fine...

Really pleased to see Grace starting. This is your time Eoghan!
Also very pleased to see Borlase sign. If he's good enough we get to keep him, if not no one's lost much.

According to facebook Griffen has made the bench ahead of Henry. Not sure which is correct.

Connacht Rugby have announced the starting XV that will face the Glasgow Warriors this Saturday (The Sportsground, Galway – kick-off 17.30)

Head Coach Eric Elwood has made just one change to last week’s team with flanker Ray Ofisa unavailable through a knee injury sustained in that bonus point loss to the Cardiff Blues.

Eoghan Grace claims the number 7 jersey in his absence; the 6’2 openside earned his 1st Connacht cap against Ulster in Ravenhill this season after joining Connacht from the Exeter Chiefs last Summer. Though Grace has been missing for large parts the season through injury he has impressed selectors with outstanding performances for Buccaneers in recent weeks. Speaking about his call-up Grace said:

“I’m delighted to be selected; it’s been a real rollercoaster of a year so to be given the opportunity to start in front of the home crowd is a huge boost. I had a good run at it up in Ulster and it was a huge experience but I’m really looking forward to the Sportsground crowd this weekend. I’m just looking forward to getting stuck in and doing my best, we know what’s ahead of us but we also know that past results have gone our way so there’s a bit of confidence in the squad.”

Connacht Rugby will hold a minute’s silence before the game for former colleague David O’Hara who passed away tragically this week. David was a Club Community Rugby Officer who worked with an Ghaeltacht and Oughterard rugby clubs and was also a popular member of Galwegians RFC.
