Henson given second chance by Toulon

6:05 am on 3 May 2011

The troubled Welsh rugby centre Gavin Henson has been given a second chance by his French club Toulon, having initially been told to leave following a breach of discipline.

Henson was suspended two weeks ago by Toulon with unconfirmed reports suggesting he had fought with a team mate following a match. But the club has since issued a statement confirming his reinstatement.

Henson last played for Wales more than 12 months ago, but he said recently he'd hoped to make his World Cup debut later this year.
