Supporting Saracens is what made me fall in love with the sport.<\/p>\n \u201cHaving joined the club as a 14-year-old, this club has not only shaped me as a player but more importantly as a man and I will be eternally grateful for everything that the club has done for me.<\/p>\n \u201cI have always been very open and honest and I wanted to continue to do that with regards to my retirement. I\u2019m sure it seems early to be announcing this with another season to go, but I want to make sure I soak up every moment of my final season \u2013 I am more motivated than ever to finish my career at Saracens in a successful way.<\/p>\n \u201cIt has been an absolute honour to live out my childhood dreams. I have created so many special memories and I have no doubt that there will be plenty more to come.\u201d<\/p>\n Director of Rugby, Mark McCall praised George\u2019s enormous impact at both domestic and international level.<\/p>\n \u201cClub legend doesn\u2019t even begin to do justice to the extraordinary contribution that Jamie has had at Saracens,\u201d he said. \u201cHe has been central to all the good things that have been achieved over the years. Equally, his loyalty to the club, particularly when it was most needed, is something we will never forget.<\/p>\n \u201cJamie\u2019s patience, especially in his early years, his competitive spirit, rugby IQ, talent and inner drive have all led to one of the great careers.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are over the moon that Jamie will be with us for his final season and we all look forward to celebrating a true one club man.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jamie George has signed a new one year contract at Saracens, which will be his final year in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":428528,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[567],"tags":[64,63,760,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-428527","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-rugby","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-rugby","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/428527","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=428527"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/428527\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/428528"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=428527"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=428527"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=428527"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Jamie](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Jamie-George-Prem-trophy-e1769018629614.jpg.webp.webp\")
