Like every other player he earns his spot, be that FB, wing centre or whatever. If neither of those he would be an invaluable squad player - and if that's what he becomes then it shows that we are progressing.

Without doubt he stays, appears to be totally professional in his attitude and commitment to the club - doesn't seem to stomp off if not in his preferred position as others appear to have done

Actually the question was..What position will he play! Evans,Goodwin and Brown the three recognised ..I'd be happy with that.

Well we obviously differ in opinion, given the choice I would have Langi over Crookes, he offers more with ball in hand and a better defender, also I think we have seen the best that Crookes will ever be I believe that Langi with time has much more to offer.

That's just how I feel. However, there is the quota problem to overcome!

Ben has offers from Leigh, Salford, Wakey and Widnes for next season. He's waiting to see whether Cas wants to release him from his contract or keep him before he decides where he wants to go.

Why would we even think about letting Brown go? One of the most consistent and reliable players we've had in a long time and can cover any number of positions. Ideal material for a game where depth of squad is absolutely vital and clearly a real professional.

Brown should stay to compete with McNally to play full back, and act as a 4th option at centre, similarly for wing. Wouldn't want him playing full back then having to reshuffle as soon as a centre is injured.

How much truth is there in Wakey offering Ben Crookes a deal?

Wakefield is a lot nearer to home for young Ben, that's one big draw in addition to guaranteed SL 2018 this moment in time.

And he'll benefit from playing and training in modern Stadia!
