Dean Hadley has extended his Hull Kingston Rovers contract to the end of the 2027 season.
The 33-year-old forward has been a key driver behind the Robins’ rise to lead Super League this season and is a big favourite of fans at Craven Park despite having arrived from fierce rivals Hull FC five years ago.
He signed a contract extension to the end of next season in January, but his performances this season have led the Robins to tie him down for a longer spell.
Hadley has 28 tries in his 129 appearances for KR, and his work-rate and attitude have made him a key warhorse for Willie Peters’ team, helping them to their first major trophy for 40 years this summer when they beat Warrington Wolves to lift the Challenge Cup at Wembley.
Peters told the club website: “We recently extended Dean’s contract by an extra year, but felt Dean is still at the top of his game and has proven he’s an integral part of what we do both on and off the field.
“We wanted to acknowledge that with another year. Dean typifies what a Hull KR is all about.”
