Edinburgh coach Frank Hadden is contemplating including Edinburgh's World Cup contingent for the Celtic Cup semi-final against Connacht at The Sportsground on Saturday.
“I am still talking to our World Cup players and we will wait until a bit later in the week to see what sort of frame of mind they are in before making any decisions," he said.
This could mean the likes of Simon Taylor, Nathan Hines and Chris Paterson will be added to the squad.
