Halifax land prop Dan Murray from Hull KR

Correspondent
Halifax have announced the signing of Hull KR prop Daniel Murray on a two-year deal.

The 24-year-old Wigan-born forward is returning to The Shay, where he had two loan spells in 2017 and 2018 during his time as a Salford player.

Murray is the fifth new signing for Halifax, who are among eight Championship clubs vying for the vacant 12th spot in Super League in 2021, following the arrival of Greg Worthington and Gadwin Springer from Toronto, Zack McComb (Sheffield Eagles) and Connor Robinson (York).

Halifax coach Simon Grix said: “I see Dan a real coup for us.

“We have had him before on loan where he was impressive on and off the pitch. He is maturing as a player and a person bringing Super League experience and high standards.”
