They're putting the band back together

The rumours have been brewing for some time but now it seems that Ica Nacewa is returning to Leinster on a one-year contract. Though the move has yet to be officially announced, TV3 Rugby are reporting that the full-back has re-signed and will be part of Matt O'Connor's squad next season. https://twitter.com/TV3Rugby2015/status/586453755538776064 Ian Madigan spoke to SportsJOE earlier this week and revealed his excitement at what was then the potential return of the 32-year-old.
'I don't know if he is coming back but we would certainly be delighted to have him. He is 32 and his best years are ahead of him. I have kept in touch with him, in New Zealand. I know he is still in great shape. Leinster is the only club he would play for, if he did make a return to the game. If he did come back, it would be a fantastic signing for the club.'
Brian O'Driscoll was quick off the mark to welcome Nacewa back to Leinster. https://twitter.com/BrianODriscoll/status/586450217098027009 And with Johnny Sexton also set to return next season Leinster are going to have more than a look of the side that dominated Europe under Joe Schmidt.
