EnglandHunslet RLFC are delighted to announce that club legend Jimmy Watson is back in the myrtle, white and flame for 2026 after signing a 12-month contract extension.
The 34-year-old, who was loaned out to Hunslet ARLFC at the start of the season, came back into the fold to play in the centre position and helped to strengthen the edges, with his experience and defence.
Jimmy, who made his 250th appearance for the club recently, went on to have a great end to the season, rolling back the years with his performances.
His experience will once again be invaluable both on and off the field as Kyle Trout looks to build a new team for the 2026 season.
