No Ferris for Round 2. Ulster team announced.

This announcement has sneaked out today as well!

The Ulster team to play Bath at The Rec in Round 4 of the Heineken Cup tomorrow (Sat 18th December) is as follows;

Ulster (15-9) Adam D’Arcy; Andrew Trimble, Nevin Spence, Paddy Wallace, Simon Danielli; Ian Humphreys, Ruan Pienaar (1-8) Tom Court, Nigel Brady, BJ Botha, Johann Muller (Captain), Dan Tuohy, Pedrie Wannenburg, Willie Faloon, Robbie Diack

Replacements (16-23) Andi Kyriacou, Paddy McAllister, Bryan Young, Tim Barker, Chris Henry, Paul Marshall, Ian Whitten, Jamie Smith

There are just two changes of personnel from the starting XV which defeated Bath 22-18 at Ravenhill last weekend, both in the back row. Last week’s Heineken MOTM Stephen Ferris is ruled out after injuring his leg in training this week while Willie Faloon starts ahead of Chris Henry who is named on the bench.

I didn’t think that my words about Ferris needing to be taken care off more would come back to haunt us soo soon but in all honesty our biggest asset has been picking up the knocks with alarming regularity and thus my contention that he and Wannenburg should be rotated during each game.
