Andrew Conway clocked a number of milestones as he returned to rugby at the weekend after an injury nightmare that dragged on for 16 months and ruled him out of Ireland’s historic success in New Zealand last year and this year’s World Cup.

The Dublin native has been with Munster for a decade but also missed out on their URC title success last season. But now he’s back and he marked his 150th appearance for the province with his 50th try.
