Taylor signs
Wigan Warriors announce the signing of Forward Scott Taylor from Hull KR on a Two-Year Deal for Seasons 2013 and 2014 with a further years option in the Club's favour for 2015.
Wigan have agreed a substantial settlement fee with Hull KR for the 21 year old who had nearly two years remaining on his contract at Craven Park. Taylor will join former team mate Blake Green at the DW Stadium following his recent move from Rovers.
Taylor is widely recognised as one of England's hottest young forward talents having been selected in the England Knights Squad in 2012 for the forthcoming games in the Alitalia Cup against Scotland and Ireland. Scott made his First Team debut for the Robins at the end of 2009 and was voted Hull KR's Young Player of the Year in 2011.
Speaking about the signing of Scott, Head Coach Shaun Wane said:
"I am really pleased to have secured the services of a talented British front rower like Scott. He already has a good skill set, but the coaching staff at this club will improve him and take him to another level.
"He is big athletic and skilful, perfect for what I want as a middle player. He will thrive in our environment and will be a great asset to the club going forward. I would personally like to thank the fantastic work done by Ian and Kris behind the scenes, to make this happen."
Scott Taylor added:
"I'm over the moon a team like Wigan has come in for me, they are one of the best teams in the world and this is a massive opportunity for me. Whilst growing up Wigan were always a team I followed with interest and I enjoyed watching some of the games top stars playing for. Wigan are a massive club and I can't wait to meet all my new team mates and staff at the start of pre-season. I'm still in shock that I've signed for Wigan, it's a dream come true for me.
"I really appreciate what Hull KR have done for me in the five years I've been there. The fans have been great and always been behind me. I owe a lot to the Coaches and to the Chairman Neil Hudgell for giving me the opportunities to progress with the club and become a first team player."
Ian Lenagan, Chairman, commented:
"This signing is yet another example of the excellent and mutually-respectful relationship between our two clubs with Wigan paying a transfer fee for the player in recognition of him being released early by Hull KR. Scott is a highly rated young talent who will add strength in depth to our squad for seasons to come."
