Age no barrier for Peter Stringer as his team prepares for Connacht

Former Irish scrum-half Peter Stringer said he feels as fit now as he did 10 or 15 years ago and is determined to keep on playing as long as he has the opportunity.

He will be 40 by the time his short-term deal with Worcester Warriors comes to a conclusion at the end of December, but the former Munster stalwart said he is enjoying it as much as ever.

Worcester, who this week have added former Ulster coach Alan Solomons to the management team headed up by Gary Gold, travel to the Sportsground on Saturday to take on Connacht.
