The teams for Friday nights PRO12 match between Ulster an Munster were announced earlier this morning with Ulster making eight changes to the team that started against Exeter.
Callum Black, Rob Herring, Wiehahn Herbst, Dan Tuohy and Robbie Diack all come into the pack with the inclusion of Tuohy and Herbst particularly pleasing.
In the backs, Darren Cave, Craig Gilroy and Tommy Bowe all come into the starting line up and on the face of it, despite injuries and player management, you would have to say that Ulster can still field an impressive back line.
Piutau, Bowe and Gilroy could be the most exciting combination yet in the back three and Cave and Marshall are a good ball handling midfield who won’t shirk their defensive duties plus of course we have the first choice halfbacks in Pienaar and Jackson, though it is a surprise that Jackson is still available, I suspect we’ll only see him for the first half.
The forwards aren’t that bad either. Black, Herring and Herbst . . .
