Ulster welcome back Ireland internationals

Rugby:Ireland forwards Chris Henry and Declan Fitzpatrick, who both featured as replacements against England at the Aviva Stadium last Sunday, will both start for Ulster this weekend. Iain Henderson, another Ulster player involved in the international squads, will also start against Zebre tomorrow night.

Fitzpatrick’s inclusion means Tom Court will revert to his more accustomed loosehead position, with Henderson and Henry named in the backrow alongside Robbie Diack.

Outhalf Paddy Jackson comes into the side in place of Stuart Olding while Darren Cave, Paddy Jackson, and Chris Cochrane have all been selected by coach Mark Anscombe.

Dublin born winger Neil Walsh, who joined Ulster last month after a three year spell in Australia, could make his debut after being named among the replacements.

Ulster(v Zebre, 7.05pm): R Andrew, A Trimble, D Cave, L Marshall, C Cochrane; P Jackson, R Pienaar; T Court, R Herring, D Fitzpatrick, J Muller (capt), L Stevenson, I Henderson, C Henry, R Diack; Replacements:N Annett, C Black, J Afoa, N McComb, M McComish, M Heaney, S Olding, N Walsh.
