Parramatta skipper Nathan Cayless has decided to retire from rugby league at the end of this NRL season, announcing his decision in a press conference on Wednesday afternoon.
Having just led Parramatta for the 200th time last weekend, the New Zealand veteran this week told friends 2010 would be his swansong season.
Cayless's place in the starting front row has been under the microscope during Parramatta's below-par opening month and there have been calls for coach Daniel Anderson to bench him and hand the captaincy to fellow Eels forward Nathan Hindmarsh.
The 32-year-old, however, has the support of his teammates and was again named in the top 13 for Monday night's clash against Canberra.
Cayless's manager Wayne Beavis was unable to confirm whether an announcement would be made on Wednesday, but sources inside the club told The Daily Telegraph that Cayless had made up his mind.
