18.49 – Welcome along to one of two Pro12 liveblogs we are bringing you this evening. Munster host Italian newcomers Zebre at 7.45pm but before that, we focus our attention on Rodney Parade, South Wales. Ulster sit top of the standing after five games played and are paying a visit to second-from-bottom, the Newport Gwent Dragons. Just 15 minutes until we get underway now.

19.17 – Ulster respond with an attack but only make it as far as the 22.  Minutes later, Nathan Buck wins possession before Will Harris shows a turn of pace with a break.

19.43 – TRY Ulster! On the attack from the lineout, Nick Williams picks up and goes by three opponents to touch down. That’s his third try of the season and a great response from the visitors.

19.54 – Half-time: Dragons 16-19 Ulster

20.12 – A Strong run from Iain Henderson there, who has been named in Decland Kidney’s Irish squad this week. For the Dragons, it’s Toby Faletau off for Nick Cudd and it looks like he’s injured an ankle.

20.50 – TRY Ulster! Dragons 19-46 Ulster – Jared Payne, on as a substitute, gets try number six after Ulster had been threatening but let themselves down with a couple of unforced errors. Pienaar’s kick is good.
