    Ulster XV & replacements to face Zebre, RaboDirect PRO12, Sunday 18th November, Stadio XXV Aprile (2.00pm GMT):


    Replacements (16-23): R Herring, T Court, D Fitzpatrick, J Simpson, A Birch, B McIlroy, S Olding, P Nelson.

    Considering up front we're missing Paddy McAlistair, Rory Best, Johann Muller, Lewis Stevenson, Dan Tuohy, Stephen Ferris, Iain Henderson, Sean Doyle and Chris Henry that's a pretty decent pack.

    Payne, Wallace and Allen will go well in the backs, not sure about the rest but in Olding and Nelson we have two very promising young players on the bench, I'm actually a bit surprised Andrew has been getting the nod over Nelson in the last two games.

    Payne's utility is crucial and while he is an excellent fullback his utility makes him all the more valuable as it allows young IQ players to get a run at FB some weeks

    Yeah impressed here as well especially when you think how many are busy elsewhere. Hope NOC can translate club form but pack should be able to get some ball and as we all know Payne is the real deal to pull the strings.

    Can only assume he's still injured. There hasn't been a medical bulletin in recent weeks or even months about him though so anything you read or hear isnt official but I haven't personally even heard anything off the record either!

    Maybe Jaco knows more?

    This game is live via red button and can be acessed directly via Ch. 301 for Freeview viewers which makes it easier to record than on satellite.

    Had a couple of AIL games this season iirc but no Ulster matches. The form of Payne is very bad news for D'Arcy though.

    Strange he's not involved then. Without knowing the nature of the illness I suppose he may need to add a few pounds before he's ready to get back with Ulster.

    NOC looked o.k. for a while then reverted to type, got ripped - stupidly and Zebre score a nice try. His goal kicking has been good but Zebre the better team. Calum Black is turning in to a really good scrummaging loosehead.
    Third try for Zebre. Ulster are shocking. Led by O'Connor with another missed tackle.

    Dreadful shyte by Ulster. O'Connor is just too poor for this level of Ulster. Passes the ball straight to an Italian in his own 22.

    U;Connor has kicked really wel, it;s just that he is useless in everything else.
    Ulster knock on in front of Zebre post. Awful.
