 Grant Webb has played for New Zealand's Sevens team |
Ulster have signed experienced New Zealander Grant Webb as cover for injured back-row players Stephen Ferris and Roger Wilson. The 28-year-old former Otago and Hawks Bay number eight is scheduled to arrive in Belfast on Tuesday.
That means he will be available for the Magners League game away to Leinster on Boxing Day.
Webb also played in Japan and was a member of the New Zealand Sevens squad in 2003.

"Grant comes highly recommended and we had spoken to Adrian Kennedy about him.," said Ulster chief executive Michael Reid. "We may not register him straight away for the Heineken Cup, but he will be available to play immediately in the Magners League."
