Michael Bradley has followed the example of the other provinces in postponing the selection of his side in favour of a 25-strong squad for next Monday's clash with Munster at the Sportsgound kick off 2pm.

Michael Bradley has followed the example of the other provinces in postponing the selection of his side in favour of a 25-strong squad for next Monday's clash with Munster at the Sportsgound kick off 2pm.

Loose forward Matt Lacey and centre Darren Yapp will have to pass fitness tests, if they want to be involved.

Bradley is likely to stick with accommodating both Eric Elwood and Paul Warwick to give Connacht a more varied tactical game plan.

CONNACHT SQUAD (v Munster): Forwards - Adrian Clarke, Ray Hogan, Bernard Jackman, John Fogarty, Stephen Knoop, Peter Bracken, Pieter Myburgh, Christian Short, Andrew Farley, John Muldoon, Michael Swift, Matt Lacey, John O'Sullivan;

Backs - Chris Keane, Mike Walls, Tom Tierney, Eric Elwood, Paul Warwick, James Downey, Conor McPhillips, Ted Robinson, Darren Yapp, Niall O'Brien, Justin Meagher, Matt Mostyn.
