NRL recruit Paul Vaughan has received shirt number 10, with Josh McGuire given 13 following the departure of captain Jack Hughes.

Sam Kasiano (14) and Gil Dudson (17) have also been recruited by the Halliwell Jones Stadium side for the 2023 campaign. 

Ellis Longstaff, who spent the end of last season on loan at Hull, has shirt number 33.
