Powerful Ulster extract early bonus

ULSTER got their Heineken Cup campaign off to the perfect start with a five-pointer against Aironi at Ravenhill last night.

However, while Brian McLaughlin’s side were dominant in every sphere they had to wait until the 67th minute before scoring their fourth try.

Ulster clobbered Aironi at the set-pieces and were much more aggressive at the breakdown. But the lack of patience attributed to numerous scoring opportunities going begging.
