Mark Anscombe’s side was bolstered by the return of the in-form Jared Payne at full-back, while Paddy Wallace reclaimed the number 12 jersey after the injury sustained by Luke Marshall in last Friday’s defeat of the Scarlets. Three further changes among the forwards saw Rory Best reinstated at hooker, John Afoa start at tighthead, and Iain Henderson claim his 11th cap in the second row. Notable also tonight was Andrew Trimble’s 150th appearance in the white and red jersey
