Marcus Rea

Name: Marcus Rea

DOB: 08/09/1997

Position: Back row

Debut: v Leinster, 27 April 2019


The younger of the province's Rea brothers, Marcus made an instant impact in Ulster colours when he scored a try and was Player of the Match on his debut against Leinster in 2019.

Injury and the Covid-19 pandemic meant he had to wait 18 months between his first and second Ulster appearances, but established himself as a first-team regular in 2021/22, and has made 47 appearances ahead of the 2024/25 season.
