Kieran Treadwell eager to kick on following Ulster milestone
and live on Freeview channel 276
Treadwell arrived at Kingspan Stadium from Harlequins making his Ulster debut against Benetton in September 2016 and was happy to bring up the century of caps in such a sort space of time.
“It’s a tough place to go (Scotstoun) and to hit 100 is a bit of milestone and it’s not something I look at now, it’ll take a few years and I’ll look back and it was nice to have a beer with the boys after,” said Treadwell.

“I got presented with it (100th cap) in the changing room, Al (O’Connor) said a few words to me and it was nice, it was good and I couldn’t ask for a better environment to be fair.”
Ulster face the Ospreys at home on Friday night (kick-off 8pm) and realistically will need a bonus point win to keep the pressure on Leinster at the top of Conference A, but Treadwell just wants to make sure they get the win before chasing five points.
“I think it’s all based on the fundamentals and basics.
“We’ve got to win games and that’s the bottom line so if bonus points come after that then they do but the bottom line is that we have to win.”

“Obviously we know they like to play and they’ve got some dangerous players and dangerous runners so we are going to have to be on top of our game.”
Jacob Stockdale returns to the starting line up while Sean Reidy and Robert Baloucoune make the replacements bench.
