Aviva Premiership champions to play friendly against Nadroga Stallions

Saracens have announced they will play a friendly against Fijian champions Nadroga Stallions in Al Ain, Abu Dhabi on March 9. The English champions will take advantage of a weekend free of domestic commitments to continue their efforts to promote the club abroad. Saracens were forced to abandon plans to play their Heineken Cup tie with Biarritz in Cape Town in January after being caught up in a local dispute over the location of the game. Sarries chairman Nigel Wray said: "This is a hugely exciting opportunity for the club. "We are looking forward to a tough match against a team packed with Fijian internationals and to experiencing the fantastic facilities created at the Al Ain Equestrian, Shooting and Golf Club."
