Loosehead prop Eric O’Sullivan and hooker John Andrew both opted to extend their say with Ulster.

O’Sullivan has made 125 appearances for the province since making his debut in 2018.

The 29-year-old Dublin native has proven to be a reliable performer for Ulster, becoming a regular in the Ulster front row’s loosehead position.

O’Sullivan has also played an important role in the Ulster Senior Women’s set-up, assisting with the scrum and defence coaching.

“I’m delighted to sign for the next couple of seasons with Ulster. I feel very at home here and enjoy playing with a great group of lads. We are developing a squad for the future and I’m excited to be a part of that,” O’Sullivan commented.

The 31-year-old Andrew continues to be an important member of the senior men’s squad, ten years on from making his senior debut in 2015 after coming through the Ulster Rugby Academy.

“I’m very happy to be staying on for another season with Ulster. It’s always an honour for me every chance I get to play for Ulster, and I’ll be doing everything I can to contribute to the team both on and off the pitch for the rest of this season and beyond,” Andrew said.
