Huddersfield Giants sign Stuart Fielden after Wigan release

Huddersfield Giants have signed prop Stuart Fielden on a two-year-contract after his release by Wigan.

The 33-year-old former Bradford Bulls man was released by the Warriors at the end of the season.

He told BBC Radio Leeds: "I'm not coming here to be a part of a mediocre team, this team has the capability to win silverware.

"They've got good players but I believe I can get in the team, that's not arrogance, it's confidence."

Fielden missed 18 months after knee surgery and a torn pectoral muscle before making his comeback towards the end of last season.

He believes he has now put his injury concerns behind him.

"I'm really good, the medical went absolutely fine," he added.

"I'd never join a club with a pre-existing injury because that's just not me. I'm feeling better than I've felt in a long time."
