O'Connell makes winning return with Young Munster

Back in training for only two weeks, Paul O'Connell bounced back to competitive action this afternoon when he helped Young Munster to a 12-10 AIB League Division Two win over Buccaneers at Tom Clifford Park.

Sidelined by a back injury since the World Cup, the Munster and Ireland second row said: "It's great to be back. We got the win and I came out of it injury free. It was a great day and very enjoyable even if I only played for 35 minutes or so.
