Dorn joins Tigers

12 April 2012

Newly-promoted Castleford have signed former London Broncos and Salford stand-off Luke Dorn on a 12-month contract.

The 25-year-old Australian, who played for Manly and Sydney Roosters before moving to Super League three years ago, scored 32 tries in 50 appearances for the Londoners but had a less successful season with the relegated Reds this year.

"Luke has bags of pace and is a top-notch support player which is reflected in a very good tryscoring record," said Castleford chief executive Richard Wright. "Although still relatively young, he has plenty of top-flight experience."

The Tigers have also agreed a one-year loan deal with St Helens for 19-year-old hooker or half-back Scott Moore, who became the youngest player in Super League when he made his debut against Wigan as a 16-year-old in 2004.

"Scott is a very promising young player who Saints see as a natural replacement for Keiron Cunningham," added Wright.

"But with James Roby also on board they are happy for us to take him for a season where they feel his game can develop."
