Connacht welcome Finlay Bealham's decision to recommit to the cause
Connacht and Ireland’s Finlay Bealham is the prime example of the “rough diamonds” that can be developed in Connacht to become established international players.
“That he is recommitted to stay with us as a tighthead in the prime years of his career, we are excited by that, and it shows he believes in the journey we are on as well.“On the back of his performances for Ireland, not just at the World Cup, but for the past 18 months, he has been really impressive, and I saw it first hand, and I have seen a maturity in Finlay in that time.”
“But we have shown consistently as a club and as a rugby programme that we can improve guys and develop them – not just getting them to become professional rugby players, but to become established internationals. I think that is massive for us in terms of our reputation as a club around the world.” “He is such an authentic human being and there is a massive personality in there. He has a great sense of fun, but also a terrific work ethic. He is a very giving person in terms of his energy, and what he is prepared to share on the field, and off it.”
