Penrith Panthers youngster Stephen Crichton has reaffirmed to fans that he wants to re-commit to the club.

The 19-year old centre, who still has a year to run on his current contract, told NRL.com that he canโ€™t find himself anywhere else.

โ€œ100 percentโ€ฆ Iโ€™ve been here since the start, but yeah, I donโ€™t find myself in any other jerseyโ€ฆ I want to stay here long-term,โ€ he said.

โ€œIโ€™m just worried about playing good footy here first and whatever happens in November, but yeah, I want to stay here.โ€

Crichton has been in fantastic touch this season, scoring 14 tries for the Panthers playing in all 18 games.

Combined with the fact that Penrith sit two games clear on to of the ladder, talks of a first-time State of Origin call-up for New South Wales could be on the cards. But Crichton is focusing on one thing.

โ€œItโ€™s good things to hear, but Iโ€™m just worried about playing good footy here,โ€ he said.

โ€œAnything plussed onto that at the end of the year would be such a good thing for me and my familyโ€ฆ Iโ€™m just looking to play good footy for the club first.

โ€œThe boys are in such good form, especially our halves as well, theyโ€™re the ones carrying us around the field, showing us what to do and just playing good footy, which makes us around them look good as well.โ€
