Ulster Rugby vs Treviso

Welcome back to Round 3 of the Guinness PRO12 Firstly may I say what a great weekend of rugby that was with all four PRO12 countries winning key games at the Rugby World Cup. The Guinness PRO12 has more representation in RWC2015 than any other club competition with 106 players representing 10 countries participating, let’s hope that they all have a long, successful tournament! We’re all looking forward to another great season of rugby ahead and the Guinness PRO12 will continue its year-on-year growth and development. All teams can now target and look forward to this season’s Guinness PRO12 Final at BT Murrayfield in Edinburgh on Saturday 28th May 2016, one of rugby fans’ top destinations. Tickets are now on public sale and demand is very good so far. Our partnership with Guinness has been an unqualified success both on and off the park. The continued support of our other partners Specsavers and Rhino Rugby is also recognised as a key component in our growth as a competition. We again thank our very strong suite of broadcasters, our newest broadcast partner Sky Sports together with BBC - Alba, Northern Ireland, Scotland & Wales, S4C, TG4 and Rai Sport in Italy. Tonight’s game will see Ulster trying to maintain their winning start at home to the season, having slipped up last time out against the Scarlets. Benetton Treviso for their part will be seeking their first win of the campaign having narrowly lost to Edinburgh and Munster so far. There should be lots of entertainment – enjoy the game! We acknowledge the excellent work of all of our match officials and disciplinary officers and wish them all well for the season ahead. The ongoing support of the media in promoting our sport and our competition is key to the development of the Guinness PRO12 and we look forward to continuing and enhancing our work together. To you the fans, we extend a very warm welcome back to Round 3 in the Guinness PRO12, your support of your club is key. Have a great weekend of rugby.
