I quit because fun was gone, says Willis

CONNACHT scrum-half Cillian Willis says he has no regrets about deciding to retire from the game aged just 26.

Willis made 19 appearances for Connacht this season but with 14 of those coming off the bench, he said his enjoyment of the game was weaning in the last few months.

“There are all sorts of reasons for making the decision to retire. I love the game of rugby but I got so bloody frustrated not playing every week,” admitted Willis.
