Irish scrum-half Peter Stringer completes his move from Saracens to Newcastle Falcons.

Scrum-half Peter Stringer has finalised his move to Aviva Premiership strugglers Newcastle Falcons.

The 34-year-old revealed last months that he was close to joining the Falcons, only for his transfer from Saracens to be held up because of an administrative delay.

However, following a week of discussions, Stringers has now penned a contract at Kingston Park.

"It's great to get it sorted out," Stringer told BBC Newcastle.

"It had been talked about for a few weeks so it's nice to know where I stand. I can't wait to meet the boys."

Stringer has made 98 appearances for the Irish national team.
