Star half-back Lewis commits to Hull KR until 2030

Mikey Lewis scored 19 tries and had 28 try assists in the 2025 Super League regular season

Hull KR half-back Mikey Lewis has signed a new five-year contract.

The 24-year-old won last year's Steve Prescott Man of Steel award and is one of three nominees for this year's prize.

The England international has scored 526 points in 129 appearances for the Robins and helped them win the Challenge Cup for the first time since 1980 in June.

"I feel like the east side of Hull have really brought me in as one of their own. The city and the club mean everything to me," he told the club website.

"I want to create my own legacy here at Hull KR and win trophies with the team I've got around me.

"I don't see why we can't do that and create our own legacy as a team."

Lewis was given the number six shirt last December after the club brought the number out of retirement with the blessing of club legend Roger Millward's family.

He has followed that up with a stellar 2025, as KR won the Challenge Cup for the first time in 45 years, and a first ever League Leaders' Shield.

Lewis, who is likely to end the year in England's Ashes Test side against Australia, was named in the Super League Dream Team and can now potentially become the first player to win back-to-back Man of Steel awards since Paul Sculthorpe in 2001 and 2002.

Head coach Willie Peters said his new deal was "important" for the game in this country.

"It's a significant signing not just for Hull KR but for the Super League and the game in the UK," the Australian said.

"It's important for clubs to keep their up-and-coming stars over here with the expansion of the NRL."
