Jack Aungier signs two-year contract extension with Connacht

The tighthead prop joined the club from Leinster in 2020 and has been an ever-present member of the matchday squad, making 63 appearances across four seasons.

The 25-year old will now remain at Dexcom Stadium until at least 2026.

Connacht head coach Pete Wilkins said: “We've been really happy with Jack's progression over the last few seasons. He has benefitted from regular game-time and has a high ceiling to become a top-class prop.

“With him, Finlay and Sam all contracted next season we'll have excellent depth at tighthead which will drive strong competition for selection.”
