Mack Hansen shines on his Ireland return

Mack Hansen has played just 80 minutes of rugby this season when he played a full game for Connacht against the Bulls in the middle of October. Not only was he light on minutes he also made his first start at 15 for his adopted country and made an immediate impact after scoring a hat trick under 30 minutes.
