Hull KR have signed Australian prop Brock Parker from the Queensland Cup ahead of the 2027 Super League season, reuniting him with head coach Nathan Cayless.
The 24-year-old, who represented the Sunshine Coast Falcons in 2026, has agreed a two-year deal with the Robins at Sewell Group Craven Park.
He becomes the club’s fourth signing under new head coach Cayless, joining Moala Graham-Taufa, Salesi Ataata and Eddie Hampson in making the move to East Hull from Down Under.
“Brock is tough, reliable and a real competitor,” said Cayless. “Having coached Brock at Parramatta, I watched him this year and he was one of the best front-rowers in the Queensland Cup.
“He’s an effective tackler who controls the ruck in both defence and attack. He’s got a massive engine and does all the little things well. He will be a great addition for us.”
Parker made 22 appearances for the Falcons as they reached the Queensland Cup Grand Final, where they were beaten by the Redcliffe Dolphins. He previously spent four years with Parramatta Eels.
“I can’t wait to get over there,” said Parker. “I’ve read up on the club and the fans. I can’t wait to experience the culture and take on the challenge.
“I jumped at the opportunity. It’s a big club that has won trophies recently but also has a great history.”
Asked what he will bring to Hull KR, the forward added: “I play with my heart on my sleeve and go after every game. “I’m all about effort, being constantly involved and being someone my teammates want to play with.
“Having worked with Nathan before, I know he’s a coach who brings the best out of his players. It sounds like a close-knit group at Hull KR and I’m looking forward to being part of it.”
