Ulster's Tommy Bowe has been ruled out of action for between four to six weeks with a groin muscle tear. Bowe suffered the injury while on international duty with Ireland and the full extent of the damage was revealed in a scan yesterday. He'll miss their back-to-back Heineken Cup games against Treviso as well as the festive League games. This comes after Rory Best fractured his arm against the All Blacks and Bowe faces a race to fit in time for Ulster's pool finale at home to Montpellier and away to Leicester.
