McCormack, Brady, Brown in Ulster side for Glasgow

Mark McCall has made three changes of personnel and one positional change within the Ulster pack ahead of this Saturday’s match against Glasgow at Hughenden, the back-line remaining unchanged.

Ronan McCormack and Nigel Brady join Simon Best in the front row in place of Rod Moore and Paul Shields who are both named on the bench, with Best switching to tighthead prop.

With Roger Wilson, who picked up a knock against The Dragons last Friday, Andy Ward and Neil McMillan all ruled out through injury, McCall has opted for newcomer Gary Brown at No.8 with Matt Mustchin providing back-row cover from the bench. Brown is a 24-yr old from Belfast Harlequins with just one Ulster cap to date, so it’s a big step for him.
