Kiripati helped his side to a hard-fought victory over Naas last weekend, but he copped a bit of a shoeing in the process. The No.8 found himself in the thick of a fiercely contested breakdown when his ear was jagged by some stray studs.
Be warned, the images below are graphic.
Okay, here goes...
The ear was, thankfully, stitched up and Kiripati has suffered no long-term damage.
Just to be safe, he sat out Bucc's 49-36 win over U.C.C this weekend, but - dedicated captain that he is - was able to make it along for the post-match pints.
Handsome as ever.
