Stringer relishing fresh start

PETER STRINGER has admitted to being deeply frustrated over his lack of game time in the last few months with Munster.

The 98-capped Irish international completed his three-month loan move to Saracens on Monday where he admitted the chance to play rugby was the main reason for the switch from the club he had played with all his professional career.

“I’m really pleased. When I got the call last week from [Munster CEO Garret Fitzgerald] and realised Saracens were interested I was too glad to answer it,” he said.
