Andrew Trimble gets chance to show his quality as Ulster face Ospreys

Discarded Ireland wing Andrew Trimble gets a chance to show what he is made off as Ulster’s quest for Guinness Pro12 success begins in earnest at the Kingspan Stadium this evening when Ospreys are the visitors.

Ulster’s interim head coach Neil Doak is only too glad to toss Trimble into the opening stanza of the new season while injuries linger in key positions.

With Ian Humphreys and new boy Sam Windsor sidelined, Doak has tossed the coin and gambles on giving Peter Nelson his first game at this level in the fly-half role.
