Retention is the name of the game at Franklin’s Gardens as Saints have assembled a squad packed with power.

And director of rugby Jim Mallinder said: “Our aim is to have as good a squad as we possibly can, and this starts with making sure we re-sign the quality players we have here already.

“It is a big statement for both the club and the players that these agreements have been done so early.”
