Churlish - we would love to have a centre as good as Shenton at this moment in time

I believe Shenton requested to be released from the final year of his contract. He was still living in Yorkshire and travelling to St Helens every day and wanted to be working nearer to his home. Saints knew they had the option of signing Jordan Turner so this suited everyone.

We had one... Dean Collis. And hardly churlish just stating what I saw from Shenton today. I think he's a decent player but I don't think he's ever been as good as he was in his first spell at Cas.

He's twice the player he was compared to his first spell. He was a decent defensive centre now he's improved his attacking abilities, will beat a man, puts trys on a platter for carney whilst still being high quality in defence. Today shanny was quiet. He's shut Watkins down twice this season. For me shenny and Watkins are the best two English centres.

As for wakey, why the hell is tansey being used as a winger!?! Especially when your full back goes off!?! Some of wakeys forwards impressed me today, that podgy walker, and Anderson, but the backs and halves were woeful.
