ULSTER COACH RICHIE Murphy has unveiled his starting side for tomorrow’s final pre-season fixture for the province against Exeter Chiefs.
Lock Alan O’Connor captains the side, while the front row sees a return to action for Andrew Warwick at loosehead prop, with trialist Corrie Barrett is at tighthead prop.
The Rea broterhs, Matty and Marcus, line up in the back row, while Kiwi Aidan Morgan continues at out-half after making his debut for the province last weekend.
Trialist Zac Ward is picked on the left wing, after being sprung from the bench in last week’s 26-19 win over Benetton.
Ulster begin their URC campaign next Saturday 21 September against Glasgow Warriors at 7.45pm.
Kick-off tomorrow in Sandy Park is 5pm.
