Ulster coach Mark McCall has rewarded his players by selecting the same side for Saturday's Magner's League assignment at the Newport-Gwent Dragons at Rodney Parade on Saturday.

The comprehensive first day win over Llanelli Scarlets owed much to the herculean work of the pack led by captain Justin Harrison, Roger Wilson and Stephen Ferris.

There should be more to come from a backline boasting Wallaby Mark Bartholomeusz and All Black Paul Steinmetz, a rejuvenated Paddy Wallace and playmaker David Humphreys.

ULSTER (v Gwent Dragons):

15 – Bryn Cunningham; 14 – Mark Bartholomeusz; 13 – Paul Steinmetz; 12 – Paddy Wallace; 11 – Andrew Maxwell; 10 – David Humphrey; 9 - Kieran Campbell; 1 – Justin Fitzpatric; 2 – Paul Shields; 3 – Tom Court; 4 – Justin Harrison (Capt); 5 – Tim Barker; 6 – Stephen Ferris; 7 – Neil McMillan; 8 – Roger Wilson.

Replacements: 16 – Nigel Brady;17 – Declan Fitzpatrick;18 – Matt McCullough; 19 – Kieron Dawson; 20 – Paul Marshall; 21 – Kevin Maggs; 22 – Scott Young.
