York RLFC are delighted to confirm the signing of Australian prop forward Jack Martin until the end of 2025 with thanks to the support of the SquadBuilder.
Jack will be proudly sponsored by Yorkshire Profiles.
The 23-year-old joins the Knights from Wynnum Manly Seagulls (2023-2024) and has previously made appearances for Cronulla Sharks (2022) and Ipswich Jets (2019).
In 2018, Martin made one appearance for the Queensland U19s.
As a young and upcoming prop forward, Martin has made 32 appearances in the Queensland Cup and two appearances in the New South Wales Cup in the Reserve Grade.
On joining the Knights, Martin said:
"I'm excited to be over here this time of year and hopefully I'll help the boys charge towards the finals.
"I wanted to get out of my comfort zone. I was comfortable in Queensland and I wanted to step outside that and be comfortable being uncomfortable."
"Winning the comp is a massive one obviously and getting back into Super League with the boys and giving that a real crack."
"For me personally I want to have a good connection with all of our middles and be a force to be reckoned with and let the outside backs do their thing.
Chairman Clint GoodChild said:
"Jack coming in at this time in the season will be a jolt of fresh energy.
"He's a young man with big aspirations and a respectable resume having represented the Queensland U19s.
"He will be a big part of the make up of the squad moving forward this season and next."
Jack is available for selection in the Knights next fixture against Dewsbury Rams.
