Matt Healy signs new deal at Connacht Rugby

Connacht’s Matt Healy has signed a two-year contract extension that will see him play with the province until at least the summer of 2018.

Dublin-born Healy joined Connacht at the start of the 2012/13 season straight from AIL club side Lansdowne and has gone on to make 57 appearances, scoring 20 tries.

The 26-year-old made his Connacht debut against Leinster at the RDS in September 2012 and this evening will be the fourth time the former Gonzaga school boy lines out at the Dublin venue in the Pro12.
