Sounds like Lewis Dodd is keen to play NRL and St Helens is resigned to the fact he'll likely ask for a release.
“Lewis is a great young lad and like any player does, he has the right to sign with any manager or agency as they want,’ Wellens told Love Rugby League.
“We respect those decisions, and Lewis is with us in 2023 and is contracted for 2024.
“We’ll obviously do all we can as a club to try and keep him here. He’s a player we love and value and we feel he is instrumental to our continued success.
“But also, Lewis is a grown adult who can make decisions for himself. What I do know with Lewis and his relationship with the club is that it’s a respectful one.
“So any conversations that happen, whether that’s now or three months, six or 12, they’ll be done in the right way.
“There’s nothing more to really add on the matter.”
