Not good losing Humph with concussion.

tries for Best, Maggs and Bowe. First caps for Wilson, Mccullough and Campbell - not a bad day for the ulster players

Humph has been given the all clear and will play next week.

Great news about Humphs, Staunton did well on place kicks but wasa bit untidy with passes and kicking from hand, not that Humphs was perfect either.
Rodger and Matt had good solid games and put up a good showing for themselves. Pity Kieran did not get a bit longer on pitch, Stringers passing was terrible and I thought should have been subbed at half time.

It was a disappointing perfromance and I would hope for more continuity and certainly much better handling next week. We made way to many unforced errors and turned over to much ball. It was hard to watch at times although I thought Matt had an excellent game.
