Ulster Rugby name Development team to face Munster

Ulster have named their Development team to face Munster this weekend.

The sides will meet in a behind-closed-doors friendly at the I RFU High Performance Centre in Dublin on Saturday (4pm kick-off).

Academy lock Harry Sheridan will captain Ulster's young team, and will be partnered in the second row by Adam McNamee.

The front row is filled by Callum Reid, James McCormick and Joe Mawhinney, with loose forwards Lorcan McLoughlin, Reuben Crothers and David McCann completing the pack.

Lewis Finlay – who scored the crucial final try in last weekend’s win over Leinster – starts at scrum-half, with James Humphreys at fly-half.

Ben Carson and Ross Taylor make up the midfield partnership, with Conor McKee and Conor Rankin on the wings and Shea O’Brien at full-back.

Meanwhile, Josh Hanlon, Scott Wilson, Ryan McMahon, Paddy Browne, Jack Milton, Ross McKay, James McNabney, Zac Ward and Jude Postlethwaite will start on the bench.
