Henry aims to sign off season on a high

Chris Henry has had to bide his time to get to the front of the Irish back row queue and after a long campaign in an Irish shirt he just doesn’t want the season to end.

The injury to Sean O’Brien paved the way for the Belfast boy to step through and with his 30th birthday looming later this month he wants to seize every opportunity.

“It has been a fantastic year. I have loved every minute of it. With Sean missing my goal was to show what I was about and try and do a job for the team and hopefully I did,” said Henry, who started all the games of the successful Six Nations campaign.
