Andy Friend: Connacht provides opportunity for young stars

Head coach Andy Friend says he has no fears about Connacht being turned into a development province after it emerged Cian Kelleher is returning to Leinster after three seasons at the Sportsground.

Connacht confirmed the 24-year-old is leaving at the end of the season, stopping short of stating where he is heading, but the winger has told teammates he is returning to Leinster.
