Huddersfield Giants sign forward Patolo

Chris Patolo made his NRL debut for Canterbury Bulldogs aged 19

Huddersfield Giants have signed Manly Sea Eagles forward Chris Patolo on a two-year deal.

The 24-year-old, who made 27 appearances in the NRL, is the second player to commit to the Giants this week after Wakefield forward Mathieu Cozza joined on Wednesday.

"We're unbelievably excited to get Chris on board, at 24 he's still got loads of development left in him," head coach Luke Robinson told the club website.

"He's got great leg speed, and is a strong middle which is exactly what we're looking for."
