The New Zealander will have a brief spell with South African side Western Province and will then make a return to Super 14 rugby next season with the Crusaders in the hope of putting on an All Black jersey once again.

After two seasons with Saracens, Jack said: "I'm not going back just to muck around. If I wanted to muck around I would have stayed up there. I want to come back and I want to play well. If I wanted to play easy rugby I would have stayed up in the northern hemisphere.

"I want to play good rugby again. I want to play challenging rugby and I want to enjoy it. The premiership gets a bit tough after a while of the same sort of stuff. It's good to play some rugby that's enjoyable and like-minded, I guess."

Catt will be joined by a host of other players who ply their trade in Europe including former Springboks De Wet Barry, Brent Russell and Neil de Kock. There will also be representation for northern hemisphere clubs with Rudi Coetzee, Trevor Hall and Robbie Diack all expected to play.

They will all be expected to make the XV if the team is signed off by Southern Kings chief selector and president of the Boland Rugby Union, Francois Davids.

Gold Coast, Melbourne, Western Sydney and Gosford are expected to make bids for the game, at either Gosford or the Gold Coast, with the most likely date for the Fiji Test to take place on June 5, 2010.

The match was supposed to take place in July but will now be played next season in June. Both the Australian and Fijian unions had been in discussions and Australian chief executive John O'Neill said: "We are trying to make sure it is a meaningful Test, involving their best team against our best team".

The Pacific Islander will join his new club in July after international duty in the Pacific Rim Cup. Quins team manager Steff Thomas said: "It is a statement of our intent. We are prepared to add quality to our squad in order to do well next year."

The punishment related to Genevois striking Saints replacement Courtney Lawes but the Frenchman's suspension has been dated back to the date of the match and with the off-season taken into account, Genevois can play again on 8 August 2009.

Meanwhile Genevois' teammate, Julien Frier, has been suspended for three weeks from today after being cited in the same game. The punishment related to Frier's strike on Saints player Euan Murray during the European Challenge Cup final at the Twickenham Stoop on Friday, May 22.

At 1.93 metres tall, Crockett is the same height as tighthead Carl Hayman but the All Blacks assistant coach, Steve Hansen, had concerns over the 26-year-old's core strength. The pair had a heart-to-heart and after four seasons of Super 14 rugby for the Crusaders the prop now has his chance.

Hansen said: "He's a tall man and if you don't have the right core strength you tend to spend a bit of time on the ground. That was happening quite a bit up to this year. Now he's worked on it and we haven't had so many collapses from him."

Tom Smith (retiring), Matt Lord (retiring), Barry Stewart (retiring) and Senior Academy forward Rob Milligan (medical advice) have already had their departures confirmed, while Sean Lamont will join the Scarlets and Alex Rae will be playing for the Bedford Blues next season.

Four other players leaving the club are; Ben Lewitt, Neil Starling, Will Harries and Phil Hoy.
