Back in action.
Ulster back row forward Sean Reidy will earn his 100th cap for the Province on Sunday when they travel to take on Dragons in Round 17 of the Guinness PRO14 Championship.
He will be joined in the back-row by Nick Timoney and Jordi Murphy, who is one of just three changes from the side that secured a 54-7 bonus point win versus Zebre last week.
The other two changes to the starting XV are at halfback, with Murphy’s international teammate scrumhalf John Cooney also released from Ireland duty, while Billy Burns returns to start at outhalf.
