Matt O' Connor to re-join Leicester Tigers

Matt O'Connor will return to Leicester in the role of head coach from the start of April.

The Australian will replace Aaron Mauger, who is departing the club after this weekend's Premiership game against Northampton.

O'Connor was part of the coaching staff for the Tigers' Premiership title wins in 2009, 2010 and 2013 and has since worked with Leinster, Queensland Reds and Tonga.
