Munster’s Andrew Conway has returned to action after a 16-month injury ordeal.
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 success in New Zealand last year and this year’s World Cup.
“It was my daughter’s first time to see me play rugby. She wouldn’t know what’s going on, she is just gone 18 months. Advertisement “To have a good day on my first day back is something I will look back on and be quite happy with. “You prepare for 80. It was not a conversation I had with physios or medics or coaches. When you step out on the field you are ready to play 80 and that has to be the mindset,” Conway said.
“There were some very tough days. You get used to these things I suppose. The first missing out on was New Zealand, I suppose, missing out on that tour which is tough,” added Conway.
