Rory Best and Stuart McCloskey set to return to Ulster duty

Ireland captain Rory Best and Stuart McCloskey will start for Ulster away to Dragons on Friday evening.

However, Jacob Stockdale and Iain Henderson will rest up before the Champions Cup back-to-back games against Harlequins over the following two weeks.

Ulster will still be without Jean Deysel, Robbie Diack, and Jared Payne this weekend although assistant coach Dwayne Peel says there will be not too many changes from last week’s dramatic last-ditch win over Benetton Treviso in Belfast.
