Jordi Murphy will make his debut for Ulster on the openside against Edinburgh tomorrow night as Dan McFarland makes four changes to the starting team which defeated Scarlets on Saturday.
Andy Warwick is the only player retained in the front row. Rob Herring captains the side from hooker while Ross Kane replaces Tom O’Toole who went off with concussion in the first half last week. Kieran Treadwell replaces Alan O’Connor in the second row and is partnered by Iain Henderson. Murphy starts alongside Marcell Coetzee and Nick Timoney in the back row.
