TOM Rees was presented with a signed guitar as he bade farewell to his Wasps team-mates.
Once touted as a future England captain, Rees was forced to retire with a knee injury last month, but came back to Adams Park on Saturday to wave goodbye to the fans who used to cheer his name.
He said playing the guitar - which has now been signed by all his team-mates - while trying to recover from the injury had "stopped him from going insane".
The former RGS pupil said: "Wasps has been my family for the last nine years and I'm a bit sorry I don't get to repay that in kind."
