I realise i may very well be in the minority here but for me i would offer Stew a contract for next year. His performances of late for me have been very good and you always know what your getting with Littler- 100% commitment each and every game.



Yes i realise he is not the most gifted player we've ever seen but now were not giving Alker a new contract i worry that were losing people on the playing side that have a real affinity with Salford and actually care about the club. For me Littler puts in the effort every game and since his permanant move to the 2nd row i think he's doen an excellent job.



We can't afford to have a squad of superstars and Littler offers us versatility in the squad and i would imagine would not be one of the top earners in the team.



Littler is one of the those players who people find easy to disregard but i honestly think we'll miss him next year if he is let go.

he will sign for Leigh for next season.

Don't they say that every year

in the same way that we used to say Adrian Morley was going to sign for us ?

if it happens then i'm sure he will get a great ovation come the end of the season.



Two great moments I will remember from Stuart was the try he scored way back in 2000/2001 season? away at Huddersfield off a Simon Svabic pass and the last Try against Leigh in the National League Final in 2003 smiling at all the Leythers holding ' Horse pictures ' ...

I know that he has been plagued by injury even as far back as his NRL days, but he really hasn't look fit for a long time. He had a bit of pace though.



Didn't he have a serious shoulder injury? If a shoulder is involved, it is never a good sign for any RL player, and especially a forward.



I must admit you've got me thinking about "line breaking forwards" and I see what you mean in terms of Salford players past and present. Ian Blease, Shakers,...........and let's not forget Steve (how's Leigh gone on?) Herbert.

I would give Littler a new contract in a heartbeat.



Great squad player and has been one of our better players over the last few months (since his move into the back row).

I think Coley is the last decent liner braker we've had, when he ran outwide at pace he was unstoppable, pity it was only when playing to impress for a new contract. Can't we get him back on a week by week thing and then he'd be a world beater.



FWIW i'd bin Fitzy and Littler if (and it's a big IF) we have replacements lined up, I have to be honest i've never been a Fitzy fan sure he's a decent fullback but for me there's always been something missing (I'm hoping we get General Patton or move Ratchford to FB) and I've often thought we should have made Littler captain last season when we made the mistake of putting Parker in charge as he as the equal respect of Alker and is a little less hot headed, that aside i'd let him go to continue a stallar playing career knowing he is a Salford legend.
