Ulster 'have loads to work on' - Henderson

Ulster captain Iain Henderson says the side are "by no means the finished article" after their 21-14 victory over Cardiff in the United Rugby Championship.

The Irish province led 14-0 at the break thanks to Scott Wilson's try and Angus Bell's superb score, but Cardiff attempted to stage a second-half comeback and scored two tries.

The result means that Ulster leapfrog Matt Sherratt's side up to fourth in the URC table and they have now lost just one of their last six games.

"I have been saying it all year, we knew things were bubbling in the last 18 months or so," Henderson said.

"Last week's game and this week's game shows that we are by no means the finished article, we have loads to work on.

"Fair play to the coaching staff and what they have brought our squad from last season to pre-season and to the start of this season."

Eight players from Richie Murphy's side are missing due to Ireland call-ups. However, the side scored three well-worked tries with Angus Bell registering a superb solo effort.

Ulster will return to URC action after the Six Nations with a trip to Wales to face seventh place Ospreys.

"That was awesome. What a night at the Affidea Stadium," Player of the Match Matthew Dalton added.

"It can't get better than that.

"We are sitting in a great position going into the next block."
