Bundee Aki thinks Robbie Henshaw will be 'a big loss' if ruled out of Ireland's 6 Nations chargeHead coach Joe Schmidt has so far refused to rule out Henshaw even from the February 24 clash with Wales in Dublin, but the likelihood is that the Leinster star could miss the rest of the tournament. 'If he's not there for the next couple of weeks it would be a big loss, he's a big leader in the backline,' said centre partner Aki of Henshaw. Aki has warned Ireland to step up their game once more for the Wales challenge, admitting Schmidt's side must sharpen up behind the scrum.
