Crunch.
Robbie Henshaw was on player mic yesterday, as he made his Leinster return with a win over provincial rivals Munster at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.
The centre has been out of action for nearly three months, after tearing his pectoral muscle while playing for the British & Irish Lions this summer against the Hurricanes.
Henshaw put in a good showing yesterday, both on the pitch and on the microphone. The Ireland star showed he’s got some great leaderships skills, and proved he’s well able to take a hit, even when it’s late.
Munster’s Chris Farrell hit him with a late shoulder charge in the second-half, and the sound of the crunch picked up by the player mic is sickening. The best part however, is Henshaw’s reaction. He seemed to enjoy it!
