Ulster banished the memories of their recent Heineken Cup disappointment tonight at Ravenhill with an assured four-try victory over the Newport Gwent Dragons, which elevates them back to the top of the RaboDirect Pro12 with two matches remaining.
Textbook goal-kicking from Ruan Pienaar supplemented tries from Tommy Bowe, Stuart Olding, Darren Cave and Paul Marshall to blow the Dragons away in the first 50 minutes of the tie, and with the Scarlets’ demolition of Glasgow doing Mark Anscombe’s side a huge favour, victories against Connacht and Cardiff Blues will guarantee a home play-off in the Pro12 semi-finals
