Tonks in Huddersfield switch
Tony Tonks said farewell to Featherstone in the perfect fashion with Championship glory yesterday, after it was confirmed he would move to Super League side Huddersfield.
Tonks, 26, has been a key figure in Featherstone’s domination of the Championship in the past two seasons, and was in the team that battered Sheffield 40-4 in the Grand Final at Warrington.
He said: “I’ve got the chance to prove I’m now ready to play at Super League level, which is something I’m looking forward to doing.
“That’s a challenge that excites me and I believe that the Giants are the perfect club to help to bring the best out of me.”
Tonks, who has signed a 12-month deal with the Giants, started his career at the Wakefield academy and has also played for Doncaster and Oldham.
