England's record try-scorer Ryan Hall will play past his 36th birthday after signing a contract extension with Hull KR.
The prolific ex-Leeds Rhinos star has agreed to stay with the East Yorkshire club until the end of 2024. Winger Hall has scored 33 tries in 50 appearances for the Robins since joining from Sydney Roosters two years ago and shows no signs of slowing up.
He featured in the World Cup last autumn and said: “It’s great to get this news out and confirm what I’m doing next year.
“You don’t see many 35-year-old wingers knocking about, but my body feels good and I still feel like I can produce on the field. I’ve really enjoyed the progression here at Hull KR.
"I think we’ve been making big strides that have helped us become a better team all around. I’ve enjoyed being a part of that and hopefully we can keep going on that same trajectory as a club and really achieve something.”
Hall has scored two tries in five appearances this term and Robins head coach Willie Peters added: “We are delighted Ryan has agreed to go around again for another season.
"Hally indicated after I got the job that he wanted to play again next season, and he’s certainly earned this contract extension. Ryan is a professional who knows his body and he’s a great role model for our younger players on what it takes to be a Super League player. He is a great example that age is only a number.”
