Ulster and Ireland’s Iain Henderson
Captain Iain Henderson will miss the rest of Ulster’s season after undergoing toe surgery on Monday.
It will take the lock at least three months to recover from the operation, which rules him out of Ireland’s tour of South Africa.
James Hume (knee) also had surgery earlier this week. He is not expected to play again this year.
Luke Marshall (concussion) and Rob Baloucoune (hamstring) will also miss this Saturday’s game against Leinster. They join Marty Moore, Jake Flannery, Ben Moxham and Callum Reid on the list of players currently unavailable. However, Tom O’Toole and Sean Reffell’s are available for selection.
