Cancer survivor on bench for Brumbies

Cancer survivor Christian Lealiifano will make his longawaited return to Super Rugby for the ACT Brumbies on Friday, nearly a year after being diagnosed with leukaemia. The Wallaby fly-half, who has been out of action since his diagnosis last August, was named on Tuesday on the bench for the clash against the Wellington Hurricanes in Canberra. The 29 year old Lealiifano made an emotional return last month when he appeared in his club's exhibition match against the Asia Pacific Dragons in Singapore.
