Ulster head coach Richie Murphy says his son Ben Murphy is "not giving much away" as they prepare to face each other in Saturday's United Rugby Championship game in Belfast.
"It's a very unique situation," said Ulster boss Murphy, who is currently without the services of Jack, who is on tour with Emerging Ireland in South Africa. "Like every young player when they make these moves, if they get the opportunity, it gives them the opportunity to take it and that's what he's done. It's great to see him doing so well, but not this week."Former Ireland Under-20 head coach Murphy, who was given the Ulster job in May following an interim spell in charge, has presided over an up-and-down start to the campaign with an opening URC win over Glasgow followed by back-to-back defeats by the Lions and Bulls.
