York announce Dual-Registered signings

York City Knights have confirmed eight players have dual-registered with the club from Hull FC for 2013.

Among them is York-born winger Tom Lineham, who is set to return to the club he starred for as a teenager as he quickly rose through the Knights ranks, before turning full-time with Hull in 2011.

Former Knights loanees Danny Nicklas and Chris Green return to the Huntington Stadium, with Nicklas on a season-long loan.

Other players dual-registered include winger Jack Briscoe, forward Liam Kent, back-rower Dean Hadley, prop Josh Bowden, full-back Jamie Shaul, Hull’s Under-20s Player of the Year last season, and Young Player of the Year Ben Crooks, who is the son of former York Wasps Coach Lee Crooks. All these players will be available for selection at the Knights if they are not included in Hull FC‘s match day squad.
