Luke Hooley admits it's 'dream come true' to sign with Leeds Rhinos after two-year deal confirmed

Luke Hooley says it is a 'dream come true' to secure a Super League opportunity with Leeds Rhinos. The Batley Bulldogs star has agreed a two-year deal at Headingley from the beginning of next season, becoming Rohan Smith's latest addition to his 2023 squad.

Hooley, who has worked with Smith in the past during the pair's time together at Bradford Bulls, has been a revelation for Batley in the Championship. He has scored 30 tries in 55 appearances and played a pivotal role in helping the club reach last weekend's Million Pound Game.

He has also spent time at the likes of Wakefield, Oldham and Dewsbury - but will return to the big time with Leeds next year after catching the eye of the Rhinos. “I can’t wait to get started at Leeds, to join the Rhinos is a dream come true especially getting another chance in Super League with such a big club," he said.
