Hull KR confirm signing of Rhinos forward Martin

Rhyse Martin has kicked 421 goals in his 128 appearances for Leeds Rhinos

Super League leaders Hull KR have signed Leeds Rhinos forward Rhyse Martin on a two-year deal for the 2025 season.

The Rhinos announced last month that the 31-year-old Papua New Guinea international would leave at the end of the year after turning down a new deal.

Martin joined the Headingley side from Canterbury Bulldogs in 2019 and has made 128 appearances in all competitions.

"I’m excited to join Hull KR next season and get over there," he told the club website.

"After speaking to Willie [Peters], I was excited by our conversations. Those chats and the performances Hull KR are putting in made the decision on the footy side a lot easier.

"I want to play the best I can for Hull KR and do what’s best for the team. Then the individual aspects of my game will progress along with that when the team is performing well."
