Ulster, Scarlets RaboDirect Pro12 clash postponed

Tonight's clash between Ulster and Scarlets has been postponed due to a severely waterlogged pitch.

Referee Leighton Hodges carried out an inspection, coming to the conclusion that the RaboDirect Pro12 match had to be called off.

A new date for the contest has yet to be set, though the two sides are in discussion with regards to getting the game underway tomorrow.

"The two teams are now exploring the possibility of playing the game tomorrow at Ravenhill," Ulster said in a statement. "A further update will be issued as soon as possible."

Ulster are third in the league standings, while Welsh side Scarlets are 13 points behind in sixth place.
