Know it's a quota spot, but Leigh are not renewing Ricky Leutele contract for some reason.

Now we are talking quality centres!

Good for Leigh but if we had a quota spot I wouldn’t be wasting it on a soon to be 35 year old centre whose current team isn’t interested in keeping. One who I think only a time ago had an injury that kept him out a while I read. No thanks. The few times I’ve seen him this year he’s been ok but not great. Rather keep Thornley another year.



If we end up with a spot there would be much younger and better players to consider. But again, we don’t have a quota spot for 2025.

Knew he'd had an injury but I wouldn't have guessed he was that age.

Didn't realise he was that age, so it's a pass for me too.

Don't think we need to worry about centres. As far as I'm concerned Pratt is a future international, whilst Joe Law has a brilliant attitude and is already a decent player, whilst Thornley has another SL year left in him and with the return of Hall, that's sorted for me.

You can add Cam Scott to the list as well as I am told he has signed a 3 year deal.

Can Scott is certainly a talent and I've seen him play both left and right centre which mot everyone can do.



It would be good Pratt and Hall covering left with Scott and Thornley covering right.

Not sure where that leaves Croft though.

There is a rumour doing the rounds that we have offered Tex Hoy a contract for next year, I`m not sure where he fits into the team and obviously there is some moving around to do with the quota spots anyway, but it`s the first time I've heard this one.

The Cas forum seems convinced we are in talks to sign Tex Hoy, which makes no sense, one because we have no quota and 2 we don't need to sign an Aussieto cover Max.

He's definitely improved the Castleford outfit and massively picked up on form compared to his Hull FC stint but not sure he's worth the quota spot with us already having a proven Super League fullback.



Unless there are other plans, I know both players have played a little bit of five eight previously. Perhaps things aren't so solid with bringing Russell in?
