Leeds Rhinos havce confirmed the signing of prop Kieran Hudson from Castleford Tigers.
The Sunderland-born prop has previously played at Newcastle Thunder and Whitehaven before being given his chance in Super League with Castleford, but n Achilles injury ruled him out for the entire 2023 season. He is now back to full fitness and will get to follow in the footsteps of his grandad John Holmes with his move to AMT Headingley Rugby Stadium. Hudson’s first professional sporting contract was Sunderland as a goalkeeper before a switch to rugby league at Newcastle.
I always remember asking him about whether he would take us to a game and he always joked that he couldn’t go before he would be too tempted to pull his boots on again.” Hudson added: “I started playing football for Sunderland from when I was nine until I was 16 then moved to rugby league with Newcastle. Any professional team you have to work hard to get where you want to be, from a young age, I have had that professionalism engrained in me and I am ready to work hard for myself and my family.
