GALLAGHER PREMIERSHIP RUGBY FINAL 2022
[ SARACENS DIRECTOR OF RUGBY ]

McCALL
It’s massively exciting for everyone at the club to be back at
Twickenham today for the Gallagher Premiership Rugby Final.
Looking back over the season there have been a number of
highlights, not least The Showdown 2 at Tottenham Hotspur
Stadium which was a huge event for the whole club and it was
a very proud moment to see us run out at such an iconic venue.
It has been a huge group effort all season to get us to this
point and I am incredibly grateful to all our players and staff for
all of their efforts and for making this year so enjoyable.
We face a Leicester Tigers team today who have had a superb
season, and huge credit must go to Steve Borthwick and his
coaching team. Steve was a great captain for our club and it is
no surprise that he is having such a huge impact as a coach.
We are also bidding farewell to a number of players this
afternoon and I would like to thank them for everything they
have done for the club.
Tim Swinson, Richard Barrington, Vincent Koch, Elliott
Obatoyinbo, Sean Reffell, Janco Venter, Tom Mills and Charlie
Watson have all been fantastic for us and we wish them and
their families well for the future.
The support that we have received this season from our fans
has been remarkable and we cannot thank them enough. There
is something special building at StoneX Stadium and we hope
to give our supporters another reason to cheer today as we
head towards the break in the summer.
We have had a very enjoyable week and can’t wait to get out
there today for this fantastic occasion.
All the best!
