Cian Kelleher is the name on everyone’s lips after Connacht’s big win on Saturday.
Cian Kelleher played his part in Connacht’s 33-20 Guinness PRO14 win over Scarlets at the Sportsground.
As almighty BOD himself pointed out after the match, this was a huge result for the Westerners.
That’s a great win for @connachtrugby. Season looking promising.

The Westerners secured three tries from Tom Farrell, Cian Kelleher and Niyi Adeolokuni respectively. Jack Carty nailed the conversions and got four penalties to his name.
Johnny McNicholl and Tom Prydie were the try-scorers for the Welsh outfit with Leigh Halfpenny and Rhys Patchell adding the conversions. Halfpenny also bagged himself two penalties.

If Kelleher can keep this up, he will surely be pushing for a spot in Ireland’s Guinness Series squad. Joe Schmidt could do with another try-hungry winger ahead of the 2019 World Cup.
