Boost for Connacht as Hansen returns to face Leinster

THUMBS UP: Mack Hansen is back and available for Connacht this weekend as they face Leinster. 

Connacht have received a timely boost with Irish winger Mack Hansen cleared to play against Leinster in front of a capacity 8,000 crowd at the Sportsground on Saturday.

But his World Cup teammate Bundee Aki, as expected, will not be available and will be assessed next week on a hamstring injury in the hope he can be fit for the start of the Champions Cup against Bégles Bordeaux.
