Contepomi boost before Last Stand

LEINSTER have been boosted with yesterday’s announcement that Felipe Contepomi has signed a two-year extension to his contract.

The 29-year-old Argentinian international has arguably been the most impressive of Leinster’s overseas signings in his 65 appearances for the province, contributing handsomely to the scoring charts.

He has scored 664 points and was last year named as the Bank of Scotland Leinster Player of the Year. He scored an impressive 131 points in last year’s Heineken Cup campaign.
