McCall makes no changes

Coach Mark McCall is going with the 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' approach with an unchanged side for Ulster's date with The Borders at Netherdale on Saturday.

The manner in which Connacht were swept aside last weekend impressed many onlookers and McCall must be confident that he has a good idea of his strongest side ahead of the start of the Heineken Cup in two weeks time.

Ireland Under-21 Stephen Ferris graduates to the bench from the Ulster A side and Andrew Maxwell has been named in the 22-man squad ahea dof Tyrone Howe.

Replacements: 16 - Paul Shields; 17 - Bryan Young; 18 - Rowan Frost; 19 - Stephen Ferris; 20 - Issac Boss; 21 - Paddy Wallace; 22 - Andrew Maxwell.
