Hull KR’s recruitment for 2026 is as good as done, with five new arrivals expected next year.
Tom Amone, Connor Wynne, Jumah Sambou, Tom Whitehead and Jack Charles are all expected to arrive heading into next season and will add to a squad that will look very similar next season.
Only two senior members of the current squad, Jared Waerea-Hargreaves and Micky McIlorum, are set to depart at the end of the campaign, with both already confirming they will retire at the end of the campaign.
And while the 2026 squad will look similar, there’s scope for big changes beyond that. Rovers have tied down the vast majority of their off-contract talent but heading into next season, ten regular first-teamers are off-contract.
Here’s a breakdown of every player’s contract length as it stands.
