Aironi keen to make early Magners League mark

AT first glance, there could be no more difficult a start to life in the Magners League than what lies ahead for Aironi on Saturday.

The Italian franchise visit Musgrave Park for what will be their first competitive game ever – a daunting prospect for any European team, never mind a scratch side that has been cobbled together over the summer.

Try telling that, however, to their Italian international flanker Josh Sole who, despite being sidelined with injury, can’t wait for Saturday to come.
