Glasgow Warriors secure their fifth consecutive victory in the URC by defeating the Sharks. Ulster edges out Cardiff in a dramatic finish, with Taulupe Faletau suffering an injury setback in his comeback match. Cardiff faces controversy in their last-gasp defeat to Ulster.
The indication from the Cardiff camp is that Taulupe Faletau’s injury was actually to his shoulder rather than his lower arm as had seemed the case at the time from the way he left the fiend. Will hopefully find out more info in the morning.

H-T: Ulster 6, Cardiff 7. A training ground try for Cardiff wing Theo Cabango followed by two Nathan Doak penalties. Taulupe Faletau forced off with an arm injury 30 minutes into his comeback after six months out, while Cam Winnett left the field early on.
Brutal bad luck for Taulupe Faletau to suffer another arm injury on his comeback after six months out.

Taulupe Faletau is set to make his comeback for Cardiff against Ulster this weekend. He has been out for six months with a broken arm and calf injury. Cardiff coach Matt Sherratt has just described him as a “Rolls Royce” player.
