Marcell Coetzee on his decision to join Ulster

Marcell Coetzee says Ulster's contingent of South African players helped him decide to move to the Irish province for next season.

The 24-year-old Springbok flanker said it was a difficult decision to leave the Sharks but was looking forward to the new challenge.

South Africans Ruan Pienaar, Louis Ludick and Franco van der Merwe are currently starring for Ulster.
