Varley focused on taking Reds chance

DAMIEN Varley had two goals in mind when he headed to London on trial with Wasps two years ago.

The hooker had no intention of missing an opportunity to win a professional contract with one of England’s premier clubs, and he was equally determined it should lead him home to Munster.

The single-minded Varley had already decided to park a biomedical engineering degree and concentrate on trying to make a name for himself on the rugby fields of Europe and the world.
