Wallabies prop Angus Bell is set to undergo scans in the coming hours after going over injured during Ulster's 29-21 defeat to Leinster.
Bell was carted from the field early in the game, appearing to suffer a foot/ankle injury after his studs got caught on the ground.
The front-rower has had foot issues in the past, plaguing his 2023 and 2024 seasons.
In England, it was better news for Josh Kemeny, getting one over fellow Aussie Tom Hooper in the battle of the blindsides.
Kemeny recorded two line breaks and two tackle busts as Northampton defeated Exeter 35-28 with a last minute try.
Hooper impressed with his own tackle busts and turnover, but couldn't inspire the win.
