Ulster Rugby Round Up podcast: New law rows in Ulster's loss to Connacht and Challenge Cup semi-final preview as Leicester await
Matty Rea was tackled by Abraham Papali'i in a move on which Ulster used their captain's challenge, much to the frustration of Connacht coach Andy Friend.
It's build-up week to Ulster's European Challenge Cup semi-final against Leicester Tigers.
Hopes are building that the province have what it take to reach a first continental final since 2012 and joining host Adam McKendry to look ahead to the game are rugby reporting duo Jonathan Bradley and Michael Sadlier.
There's also an opening Rainbow Cup defeat to Connacht to look back at, interesting most for the controversial debut of the new law trials as the visitors used their captain's challenge to set up the winning try and Ulster's decision riled Connacht coach Andy Friend. That and more in this week's podcast, which you can listen to right here:
