Leinster's Ed Byrne has been ruled out of this weekend's Heineken Champions Cup semi-final due to a tricep injury sustained against Vodacom Bulls.

The Carlow native captained Leinster against the South African side last weekend - a fixture in which Leo Cullen's side outfit were heavily defeated on a scoreline of 62-7 in the BKT United Rugby Championship at Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria.

Leinster take on Toulouse at the Aviva Stadium this Saturday, April 29 at 3pm.
