Ulster captain Iain Henderson insists he only has eyes for Tigers as next week's South African Lions reveal looms large on the rugby horizon.
Warren Gatland will name his touring squad, to face the Springboks over three tests and five other fixtures in July and early August, next Thursday.
And while Henderson is hoping to be part of a second tour in the famous red shirt, the Ireland lock isn't looking beyond Friday night's Challange Cup semi-final with Leicester at Welford Road.
"It is obviously going to be an exciting summer for the guys who tour and it will be massive for those who get an opportunity to go on it," he said.
"But for me, it is all about controlling what is in your grasp and semi-final rugby is a massive distraction. You have to be able to switch back in and focus on this week.
"Arguably a lot of the decisions have also already been made (in terms of Lions selection), so it is out of your hands."
Henderson, who has won 63 Ireland caps since making his Ulster debut nine years ago, didn't feature in the province's last European final in 2012.
That Heineken Cup showpiece was lost heavily to Leinster at Twickenham, while the club's last trophy success was in the old Celtic League trophy in 2006.
Ulster have fallen short in recent times - losing last season's Pro14 final to Leinster a prime example - but the 28-year-old believes those recent experiences are cash in the bank for the club's younger players
"For a lot of guys who are young or relatively inexperienced in playing at finals, to win at the top level you have to be performing and winning consistently at the top level," said Henderson.
"The closer we get, the better the guys are handling and performing in that environment. And the more we get there, the increased chance you learn winning habits."
While Ulster are favourites to take a third successive English scalp after beating Northampton and Harlequins away in previous rounds, Henderson has Leicester down are a major threat.
He also believes the Tigers are a different beast under head coach and former England lock Steve Borthwick who was his forwards coach when the Lions last toured New Zealand in 2017.
"He's trying to bring Leicester back to a more detailed, clinical version of what they used to be," said Henderson. "There used to be a lot of grunt and he's trying to add a bit more brains to that.

"He was a brilliant player at Saracens and I think he wants to bring that out in the guys he's coaching. He'll have them fired up and they'll be looking to go at this all guns blazing."
Henderson, who made only his third Ulster appearance of the season in last week's Rainbow Cup defeat to Connacht, starts in the second-row alongside Alan O'Connor.
Jacob Stockdale lines out at full-back, with Ethan McIlroy starting on the left wing and Michael Lowry and Will Addison on a strong bench.
