ULSTER smoothly moved into the Magners League mid-table after a seven-try blitz against Connacht at Ravenhill last night.

Leading 20-10 at the break, Simon Danielli scored twice and Stephen Ferris, Timoci Nagusa, Mark McCrea Darren Cave and Bryn Cunningham all touched down.

Connacht only briefly worried the Ulster rearguard with Fionn Carr scoring their only try.

Wallace, however, did make a quick enough recovery and his absence did not stop Ulster from forcing the game in the early stages.
