Teams up for Dragons v Ulster

by

Teams are up for Ulster Rugby’s PRO12 match against Neath Gwent Dragons which takes place this evening, Friday 24th March, at Rodney Parade. Kick off at 7.35pm, live on BBC2 NI.

There are four changes to the starting line up that featured against Zebre. Sean Reidy returns to the back row to replace the injured Marcell Coetzee and he is joined by Iain Henderson, who returns from International duty.

Darren Cave comes in at inside centre, with Jacob Stockdale making way, and Andrew Warwick swaps with Callum Black at loosehead.

Paddy Jackson also returns from International duty but will start from the bench with Stuart Olding given another run out at out half.

From the Ulster perspective the big question is how the pack will react to the absence of Coetzee. They have been playing in fits and starts without him but they will need to produce an 80 minute performance if they are to pick up the required win bonus. I guess it will all depend on how fired . . .
