Calf injury: Dan Tuohy

Ulster second-row Dan Tuohy could be out for up to four weeks after a scan revealed he tore his calf muscle during the 10-9 defeat to Northampton.

The injury took place at Ravenhill on Saturday, with the lock in excellent form for the PRO12 and Heineken Cup Pool leaders thus far in 2012/13.

Paddy Jackson, who sustained a dead leg in the same match, is responding well to treatment and is likely to be available for selection for the RaboDirect PRO12 clash with Leinster on Friday.

Meanwhile, no date has been confirmed for Tommy Bowe's knee surgery but it is expected that it will take place before the end of this week.
