It's a beautiful day for rugby in Newport

Ian Humphreys gets the game started

Both teams are out on the pitch as we near kick off

Rhys Thomas captains a Dragons side who welcome back Welsh international Andrew Coombs and the home side will be looking for a big performance after an away loss to Zebre last week

Darren Cave will captain Ulster for the first time as the Ulstermen travel to Wales knowing that a win would put them ahead of Munster and up to second place in the table.

Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's live coverage of this Guinness Pro 12 clash between Newport Gwent Dragons and Ulster Rugby at Rodney Parade
