Griffin says ambitious Connacht badly needs wins

Connacht centre Eoin Griffin believes his young side have to put more wins on the board to match their ambition.

The 22-year-old made a comeback from injury in the 17-0 defeat to Leinster at the RDS on Saturday and he remains optimistic, despite what he described as a disappointing performance.

Although frustrated at Connacht’s most recent reversals to Leinster and Munster, Griffin still believes his side are headed in the right direction and he points positively to the age profile of the squad.
