“I really enjoy it here. I love being around the boys and playing for Radders.

“To get a new contract and secure my next two years at least, I’m over the moon and everything has just fallen into place.

“When I first came to Cas, I felt at home straight away, and I didn’t want to go anywhere else so to get it over the line now, I’m made up.”

Radford said: “We’re going to have some options in the halves next year, it gives us different styles in that position and if this year has proved anything, to have as many options there as we possibly can is important.”
