Irish Rugby : Provincial Rugby : News : Ulster Include Injury Concern Payne

Ireland pulled clear of hosts Canada with four tries in the closing half hour as they earned a 40-14 victory at the BMO Stadium on Saturday night. Check out some photos from the Toronto tussle.

The Ireland Under-20 team, sponsored by PwC, to face tournament hosts France in Tuesday's 5th-8th place play-off at the IRB Junior World Championship has been named.

Fergus McFadden's desire to play international rugby on a regular basis was encapsulated by his last-minute try against Canada. The game was well won but Ireland wanted a sixth and final try and the in-form winger was only too happy to deliver, taking Paul Marshall's pass off a scrum and handing off Sean White to crash over in the left corner.

Ulster have already secured a spot in the quarter-finals of the competition, but next Saturday's game in France, combined with results in other pools, will determine if they will have a home or away match in the last-eight.

It was confirmed yesterday that number 8 Nick Williams sustained a knee injury in the win over Glasgow last Friday night and will be on the sidelines for up to eight weeks.

Full-back Jared Payne has an ongoing groin complaint and his fitness will be monitored throughout the week.

The province has never won a Heineken Cup game in France, but did record a victory on French soil in a pre-season friendly in August with a 20-15 defeat of Bayonne.

Mark Anscombe's team will face a formidable challenge in Castres Olympique who have won three of their last four home matches in the competition.

The Ulstermen beat Castres 41-17 in their opening Heineken Cup Pool 4 game at Ravenhill in October.

ULSTER Squad (v Castres Olympique) - Backs (12): Paddy Wallace, Niall O'Connor, Ruan Pienaar, Craig Gilroy, Paddy Jackson, Chris Cochrane, Paul Marshall, Andrew Trimble, Michael Heaney, Jared Payne, Darren Cave, Michael Allen.
