As I confirmed directly with Cas, he can be withdrawn back to Cas at 24 hrs notice for a first team place only.
Yes he is only 19, but there's an old saying....if you're good enough, you're old enough!!!!
Many of the guys in CC1 that he is currently playing against aren't exactly anorexic. As to his own frame, haven't we learned a lot from Robbie Burrows when it comes to a players size?? But I can't blame you for wanting to keep him at Leigh for as long as possible.
I know that life in the Co-operative Championships must seem light years away for you Sooper Dooper league fans - well, maybe not in Cas's case!
Being pedantic, I'd just like to point out that Ryan, and Leigh (and Featherstone!) are not in CC1 - they are actually in the Championship. The likes of Rochdale, Workington etc. are in CC1. It's a bit like me saying Cas are in SL2!
As for Brierley, he has enormous potential - you've got a star in the making there - but I don't think he's physically ready for SL. He is being protected and nurtured in the Championship, and is not playing much more than half a game, when he is creating havoc against tiring defences.
