Irish trio start for Ulster

Ulster coach Brian McLaughlin has made five personnel changes to the Ulster starting line-up ahead of tomorrow's Magners League game against the Scarlets at the Parc Y Scarlets in Wales, kick-off 7.05pm.

Ian Humphreys has shaken off a shoulder injury and is named at fly half despite leaving the field early against the Ospreys last Sunday.

Andrew Trimble, Paddy Wallace and Tom Court all make the starting line-up having been being released from the Ireland training squad during the week.

Trimble takes up the right wing position with Craig Gilroy switching to the left with Scottish winger Simon Danielli dropping to the bench.

Prop Tom Court takes the place of Bryan Young who drops to the replacements. Paddy Wallace joins the in-form Nevin Spence in the centre, with Ian Whitten dropping out of the matchday squad.

The other notable inclusions are TJ Anderson in the back row in place of Willie Faloon and Andi Kyriacou at hooker instead of Nigel Brady. Johann Muller will again captain the side in the continued absence of Rory Best, who is still on Ireland duty along with blindside Stephen Ferris.

Ulster: A D’Arcy; A Trimble, N Spence, P Wallace, C Gilroy; I Humphreys, R Pienaar; Tom Court, A Kyriacou, D Fitzpatrick, J Muller (C), T Barker, TJ Anderson, C Henry, P Wannenburg;

Replacements: N Brady, J Cronin, B Young, R Caldwell, R Diack, P Marshall, L Marshall, S Danielli.
