Anscombe happy as Ulster up and running

Connacht 7 Ulster 18

John Afoa, Stuart Olding, Tommy Bowe and Rory Best are four players who look set to return in the coming weeks, a welcome boost to coach Mark Anscombe as the province heads into a tough month and the start of the Heineken Cup.

“We are building towards a settled team,” says Anscombe. “It’s a process. We have some players who maybe are not at the top of their game, but each game is either 60 or 70 minutes towards building that foundation to getting them right.”
