IRFU say Henshaw’s club future up to Schmidt

The IRFU president has said that Connacht’s only current international, Robbie Henshaw, will have to move to another province if Irish coach Joe Schmidt insists on it.

Pat Fitzgerald said the national team has to come first and Henshaw, who recently signed a contract extension to remain with Connacht until 2016, would have to move.

Connacht coach Pat Lam is determined to hold on to the gifted 20-year old who burst on the scene at the start of last season.
