PRO14: Teams up for Ulster v Southern Kings

Ulster are back after a three week hiatus and welcome the Southern Kings to Kingspan Stadium as the race for the play off spots heats up.

John Cooney is the only international player that will feature for Ulster, with Jordi Murphy, Rory Best and Jacob Stockdale rested and Iain Henderson recovering from injury.

Eric O’Sullivan is also rested after his man of the match performance away at the Dragons three weeks ago and is replaced by Andrew Warwick. Rob Herring and Marty Moore complete the front row. Alan O’Connor and Ian Nagle form the second row with Kieran Treadwell named on the bench. Marcell Coeztee is welcomed back to the starting team at eight and is flanked by Matthew Rea and Nick Timoney.

It’s a really strong back line named despite missing John Cooney, Jacob Stockdale and Will Addison. Dave Shanahan and Billy Burns are the half backs with the reliable centre partnership of Stuart McCloskey and Darren Cave outside them. There’s plenty of pace on the wings in the shape of Rob Lyttle . . .
