Happy Pienaar relishing Pelissie challenge

Montpellier v Ulster

Pienaar wears the number nine jersey in today’s massive Heineken Cup test at Montpellier, who have yet to lose at home in the competition. The return of Pienaar is the only change from last week’s success over Leicester, with All Black John Afoa on the bench alongside Lewis Stevenson, who replaces Robbie Diack.

Meanwhile, Pienaar says both he and his young family love the lifestyle and people of Belfast, and that signing on until the end of the 2017 season was never going to be a difficult decision.
