SIX NATIONS GRAND Slam winners Mack Hansen and Bundee Aki have both returned to the Connacht starting team for their EPCR Challenge Cup Round of 16 clash with Benetton in Treviso this Saturday [Kick-off, 3pm Irish time].
Connacht head coach Andy Friend has made six changes to the side who defeated Edinburgh last week, with fellow Ireland internationals Dave Heffernan, Leva Fifita, Paul Boyle and Tiernan O’Halloran also coming into the starting team. “There was lots to like about last weekend’s win, so it’s a brilliant situation we find ourselves in where we can bring six experienced internationals into the team for this game,” said Friend following the team announcement.
