Hugo Keenan was not completely out of the Ireland picture in November. Though he’s still rehabbing from the hip surgery he had during the summer, the 29-year-old was back in camp from Monday to Thursday ahead of the South Africa game.

“They brought me back in just to keep me involved with the hope that I'll be back involved for the Six Nations,” Keenan explained at the launch of the Champions Cup.
