Saracens improved no end after he came on, showed some nice touches with ball in hand, and he still has immense power, breaking the gain line on a few occasions.
Wishful thinking but... free til the start of the next union season, sign him up for 6 months? Would still show Fielden a thing or two and would definitely inject a bit of passion into the side.

Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”

Was going to start a thread on this myself after sitting up watching the re-run of that game last night. Saracens were going nowhere 'til Faz came on and he transformed them immediately with his ball playing and running and even his kicking from hand was spot on. He definitely has slimmed down though since his Wigan days, I'm not sure if he could come back as a prop but he definitely has rugby left in him.
Notable also how the commentators mentioned Chris Ashton can't even get a place on the bench these days.
He made a quality pass in his final Guinness premiership match to set up a try it was pure class, it's a shame injuries hindered him reaching his full potential in Union.

ill 2 nd that mate he was awsome could nt believe the power he still has when he said he was retiring i think i was expecting to see a tired faz out there but i was in shock he looked very fresh an when he was passing ball about to you could see rugby league in him "faz come home "

Great servant of the game. Always hated him being in the side when we played Wigan. The bloke has been some talent, don't get too many players like him coming along.
