Seems Sutty has a centre spot nailed down now. So Jimmy'll have to try get a back row spot. Its his for the taking. Our back row is ancient.

Do we have any quota spots free? Atalea Vea and Cory Paterson both being released from Leigh after relegation. Either could do a solid job as cover in back row for us, esp now Ferres is likely to miss start of season.

Would say that currently with the squad we have, this is how we stand for 2018:

1 Golding, 2 Briscoe, 3 Watkins (VC), 4 Sutcliffe, 5 Hall, 6 Moon, 7 Myler, 8 Galloway, 9 Parcell, 10 Cuthbertson, 11 Jones-Buchanan, 12 Ablett, 13 Ward (C), 14 Dwyer, 15 Delaney, 16 Singleton, 17 Garbutt, 18 Keinhorst, 19 Ferres, 20 Mullally, 21 Peteru, 22 Handley, 23 Walker, 24 Ormondroyd, 25 Lilley, 26 Oledzki, 27 Smith, 28 Jordan-Roberts, 29 A Sutcliffe, 30 Aston.

Golding & Walker battle is the debatable one. To have a squad of 25 with the players that we have in place now, one of Walters or Handley have to leave. Peteru, Myler, Dwyer gaurenteed an under 25 shirt. Walker gaurenteed as part of his contract. Cannot fit Handley & Walters in there too. Unless someone else leaves.

Quota players are Moon, Galloway, Parcell, Cuthbertson, Delaney, Garbutt, Peteru. 7 allowed.

When someone suggested to him he should retire on twitter Delaney said he won't be and will prove them wrong next year so don't expect him leaving even if it's what some would prefer.

Fair play if thats how he feels but in years gone by he wouldn't be given the choice of carrying on with us it would be at the likes of a Wakefield or widnes. Great servant for us no doubt but he has been shot for a couple of years at least, his playing style was sadly always likely to see him end up this way.

Put his body on the line time and time again. I hope the person on twitter was suggesting he retired for brets sake not for their own reasons.

Much will depend on the contract he has signed.
If he has another year or more on his contract then why would he leave unless he was paid off?
