Huddersfield sign hooker Brandon Moore on loan from Halifax
Huddersfield have signed hooker Brandon Moore on loan from Halifax for the rest of the season.
The 24-year-old has made 67 appearances for Fax since 2016, scoring 12 tries.
Huddersfield interim coach Luke Robinson said: “We’re really excited to have Brandon be a part of the squad and extremely happy to bring him in before deadline day.
“The reason we’re bringing him in is due to the injury to Adam O’Brien leaving us light in that position – bringing someone in to give us a little bit more depth in that position.

"We as a club see this as a scenario where everybody wins. Unfortunately, for Adam O'Brien he will miss the remainder of the season leaving them in a position where they need another hooker.” pic.twitter.com/JwnSzYMjqu

“I’ve seen him on numerous occasions: watching lots of Halifax in the Championship and coaching Siddal Under-10s’ side with Simon Grix. I speak to him quite regularly and he has nothing but praise for Brandon.
“I feel that he fits in with the qualities we want in the club; his work ethic is second to none, he’s a quality defender, he’s fit as a fiddle and he’s a good lad. By bringing us those qualities, he’ll make us a better squad and will provide depth around our pivots in case we pick up any injuries.”
