Iain Henderson’s inclusion in the starting lineup is the big news ahead of Leicester v Ulster tomorrow afternoon (15:15).
John Cooney is also included among the replacements in the only other change to the match day panel.
Rory Best will lead the pack from the front alongside Eric O’Sullivan and Marty Moore. Henderson is partnered in the second row by the ever-improving Kieran Treadwell while dynamic Marcell Coetzee, Sean Reidy and Jordi Murphy continue in the back row at 8, 6 and 7 respectively.
Dave Shanahan impressed in the win over Racing 92 last Saturday, coming in for John Cooney at late notice and continues in his scrum half role alongside Billy Burns at out half. Stuart McCloskey and Will Addison will be hoping to keep Manu Tuilagi as quiet as they did in the fixture at Kingspan from the centres. Ulster’s back three is made up of Jacob Stockdale, Robert Baloucoune and Louis Ludik.
