Versatile Malins, 23, has suffered rotten luck this season, with a twice broken fifth metatarsal denying him the opportunity to move up the Saracens pecking order in the absences of Owen Farrell and Alex Goode before Covid-19 brought a halt to proceedings.
Now fit and hungry for action, the fly-half/full-back told The Rugby Paper: “The injury was very annoying. When I did it the first time at the start of the season, my initial thought was that I’d missed a really good opportunity with ‘Faz’ away at the World Cup.
“I was distraught about that because it would have been a great chance to stake a claim early in the season. And then with ‘Goodey’ getting injured as well it really opened things up for me, so to break my metatarsal again four games back was devastating.
“I was just getting back running again as Covid-19 struck, so the timing of that was really bad too, but the good thing is I’ve got a bigger screw in the bone now to hopefully give me better support and when we do get back training, I should be ready to go.”
