We’ve released 15 players in the last 12 months and he’s still here. He’s captained England academy and our academy too. They see much more than we do in him and there must be a reason for it.
Suttcliffe shouldn't make the 17 if we have a healthy squad especially if we sign another backrower.

It’s Gale or Ward, probably in that order.
Expect one of those two to get it but regardless I expect to see gale dictating the plays and ward leading by example in the pack. Not dissimilar to the way that sinny and JP worked.

Sutcliffe surely isn't in the top 17 is he? He has utility value but would be behind specialists anywhere he can play, especially since Martin is the goalkicker.

Whilst I don’t think he should be near the first 17, he always is, can’t explain it. However, looking at options, people putting far too much on Mellor, and might be a bit dissapointed. With Merrin gone, it rests on whether Ward can stay injury free. Smith for me the best option to utilise playing and giving a proper shot, but doesn’t happen. You can see again Sutcliffe picked each week.
I wouldn’t worry. He won’t leave Cas when he’s got a deal until he is almost 40 in his back pocket! And minus the sarcasm, I don’t think Gale has captained Cas since 2016. When Shenton doesn’t play, its McShane.
