St Helens captain Keiron Cunningham will play for one more season and then retire after signing a final one-year deal at Knowsley Road.
The former Wales and Great Britain hooker, 32, is entering his 16th year at the club and has been named in the Super League Dream Team seven times. Cunningham has played 445 times for the Saints, his only club, scoring 167 tries and is considered one of Super League’s all-time greats.
He said: (quote) I am feeling mentally and physically strong enough to play at the peak of my game for another season. I will then be looking to retire but aim for it to be at the very top. (end quote)
