Jumping Jack has rediscovered his spring

Having missed most of last season through injury, it is starting to look like Jack O’Donoghue has the spring back in his step.

Last Saturday at a rainy and windswept Thomond Park, not even the horrible conditions could keep the Munster back-rower grounded, the 25-year-old literally springing into the night sky to claim the lineout ball that prevented Saracens from getting any more out of their trip to Limerick than they had already secured.
