Munster Rugby are pleased to announce the signing of Ireland international Jack Aungier on a two-year deal.<\/p>\n
The powerful tighthead prop has made 100 appearances for Connacht to date and was called up to the Ireland squad for the 2025 Six Nations before making his Ireland debut against Georgia last summer.<\/p>\n
The highly-rated 27-year-old has also represented Ireland A and Emerging Ireland on the international stage.<\/p>\n
Aungier came up through the ranks at Suttonians RFC and St. Fintan\u2019s High School before joining the Leinster Academy in 2017.<\/p>\n
He made five senior appearances for Leinster before moving to Connacht in 2020 where he has made 100 appearances over the past six years.<\/p>\n
Jack Aungier said: \u201cI\u2019m really excited to be joining Munster Rugby next season. This squad has a brilliant blend of young talent and experienced leaders, and I can\u2019t wait to be part of it. I\u2019m looking forward to getting started, contributing to the team, and making an impact on and off the field.\u201d<\/p>\n
Munster Rugby General Manager Ian Costello said: \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to welcome Jack to Munster Rugby. He brings a wealth of experience and his quality is reflected in his call up to the Ireland squad last summer.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s a powerful scrummager, dynamic ball carrier and has a range of skills which we think will add massive value to Munster Rugby.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Munster Rugby are pleased to announce the signing of Ireland international Jack Aungier on a two-year deal.
