Matt Williams' has called Ballynahinch hooker Neil Hanna into his 25-man squad for Ulster's last Magner's League match of the season against Scarlets at Parc y Scarlets on Saturday.

Coach Matt Williams said: "It would be nice to beat a Welsh team because we haven’t beaten one in Wales all year.

"When we played Scarlets at home in December, we played well and lead for the vast majority of the game, and it was unfortunate to only come away with a draw. The Scarlets have to play three games in a week so we should be nice and strong going over there."

ULSTER (v The Scarlets):

Forwards: Rory Best, Brendon Botha, Nigel Brady, Ryan Caldwell, Robbie Diack, Neil Hanna, Carlo Del Fava, Willie Faloon, Declan Fitzpatrick, Justin Fitzpatrick, Stephen Ferris, Chris Henry, Matt McCullough, Ed O’Donoghue, Bryan Young;

Backs: Isaac Boss, Darren Cave, Simon Danielli, Ian Humphreys, Mark McCrea, Timoci Nagusa, Niall O’Connor, Clinton Schifcofske, Ian Whitten, Cillian Willis.
