Coach Rohan Smith has hailed Leeds Rhinos’ latest recruit, Kieran Hudson, as “one of the most impressive young athletes I’ve spoken to”.
Prop Hudson is grandson of Leeds legend John Holmes who holds the club record for most appearances with 625 from 1968-89. The 23-year-old has joined Rhinos from Castleford Tigers after previous spells with Newcastle Thunder and Whitehaven. A former goalkeeper with hometown club Sunderland, Hudson missed the whole 2023 campaign after suffering an Achilles injury in pre-season, but is now fully fit and began training with Rhinos yesterday . “I would like to welcome Kieran to the club,” Smith said.
He had been expected to push for a Betfred Super League debut this year, but the injury meant he left Castleford without making a senior appearance. Hudson, who is understood to have been offered new terms by Tigers, said: “I am excited to be at the Rhinos, the club is a big part of my family and it is great to have finally signed. John Holmes was my grandad.
