The Irish provinces shipped four defeats this weekend in the HCup but the biggest loss of all may be Tommy Bowe, who suffered 'significant” lateral ligament damage to his right knee after making a rampaging sprint down the sideline as Ulster chased a try that win them their match of the Saints.
We really hope the prognosis is not too bad and Bowe can get himself up and running for that Lions #14 shirt that he so rightly deserves.
