Dan Tuohy to make return for Ulster A

The Ulster A team, sponsored by CD Group, will take on Leinster A on Saturday evening at Donnybrook (kick-off 7.00pm), which will serve as a final warm-up game ahead of the British & Irish Cup opener next weekend.

Dan Tuohy will return to captain the Ulster side, in what will be his first appearance since being sidelined with an ankle injury in December 2015.

The side includes 7 of the starting XV who defeated Canada A 48-38 in a 13-try thriller at Kingspan Stadium at the end of August, including openside flanker Nick Timoney who picked up the Man of the Match award that night.

Ireland U20 stars Jonny McPhillips and Jacob Stockdale will play at out-half and outside centre respectively, while Kyle McCall will add additional senior team experience to the front row.
