Connacht and Ulster go head to head in Ravenhill tomorrow night (7.30pm) for a second successive year with Heineken Cup qualification as their no 1 ambition.
While there is still some way to go before qualification is determined, this match is looking like another “cup final” between the two sides currently propping up the bottom of the Magners League table.

•Galwegians are in action on Saturday when they play their fisrt AIB Cup fixture this season. They host Highfield in Crowley Park in this postponed second round fixture. Highfield advanced with a 13-6 victory over Sunday’s Well, but Galwegians should prove too strong for this division two side which currently lies 11th in the league. Galwegians, who advanced to the semi-finals before losing 5-8 to Shannon last season, have another great opportunity to go through - the winners will play division three outfit Nenagh Ormond in the next round. Buccaneers have already advanced following their superb victory over Clontarf.

Thu, Nov 20, 2008
It would be easy to believe that next Sunday will be a sure thing for Corofin. They are at home, they have won the Connacht championship before in 1991, 1995, and 1997, and they showed some good form against Castlerea the last day out.
However that would be a dangerous and naïve approach for them to adopt. Eastern Harps is a very well drilled and organised outfit. Coach Denis Johnson, who is a PE teacher, is highly respected, and he has been one of the top managers in the county for many years.
