Dickens also played for Salford City Reds in the Super League after signing for them from Featherstone Rovers where he had been for 9-years. He played nine times that season, in which Salford were relegated, kicking four goals. He remained in this division ever since, opting not to try to regain first-grade action in Super League.[3]
