Connacht boss Lam ready to unleash All Black star Muliaina

Connacht’s first All Black, Mils Muliaina, makes his debut for the province tonight when Connacht host Zebre at the Galway Sportsground (7.35pm).

After four months sitting on the sidelines recovering from elbow surgery, the 100-cap All Black, who is named in the starting XV at fullback, says he is ready and rearing to go.

“I think I have come through the last couple of weeks in good stead. There comes a time when you think ‘I can’t wait to get back out there’ and I am just really excited now,” he says.
