Addison, Moore and Timoney out of Friday's game according to early reports. Chat that Ulster have secured a short term cover signing for Moore for their 2 game tour in South Africa.

Big Bad Bradley Davies is on his way to Japan.
He’s either touring with Queens of the Stone Age or joining up with Gatland’s squad.
Either way, they’re missing three second row forwards now.

Bobby B’s injury has gone from his knee on the UR website to his ankle in the BT.
I bet his toes are worried.

Should be able to get a good win, home game, first full pre season with McFarland, not that many people lost to Ireland.

For the record, and Lest We Forget, I am reliably informed that it will be DAY 4633.
Re: Ulster v Ospreys Fri Sep 27 7:35pm Premier Sports 1 / Eir Sport 1
Anyone fancy a guess at the team and subs?
Re: Ulster v Ospreys Fri Sep 27 7:35pm Premier Sports 1 / Eir Sport 1
A supplementary question. Are Marshall, Ludik and Murphy all fit to play?
Re: Ulster v Ospreys Fri Sep 27 7:35pm Premier Sports 1 / Eir Sport 1
I'd imagine so given their names weren't on the injury list.

Ulster team to play Ospreys, Guinness PRO14 Round 1, Friday 27 September 2019 at Kingspan Stadium (kick-off 7.35pm):

Bookies like Ulster by 14. McCloskey apparently has a minor injury.

Good to see Lowry covering 10- hopefully he gets some decent gametime from the bench.

Quite a decent team, McBurney hasn't overtook Andrew, McGrath ahead of O'Sullivan, Lowry on the bench. I guess on all three the coaches have went for the safe option with the only risky option O'Toole ahead of Kane. Will be pretty disappointed if we don't win this by more than a couple of tries.
