LEINSTER STAR ANDREW Conway is set to leave the province to join Munster on a two-year contract, it has today been announced.

The former Blackrock College schoolboy made his debut with Leinster as a 19-year-old in February 2010 against Scarlets, and has racked up a number of appearances for the province ever since, including featuring ten times this season.

The news is likely to be regarded as a further blow for Leinster, who are already reeling from the announcement that Jonny Sexton will be leaving the province at the end of the season.

    Who would want to manage Galway now, nobody that is of a better calibre than Anthony Cunningham anyway.

    They have become a very unlikeable team with their carry on for the last couple of months. Their “handbags ” behaviour lastnight was embrassing

    What a pity the didn’t use the ‘handbags’ they had in Boston, in the second half of the all Ireland rather than capitulate to Kilkenny.
