St Helens have extended the contracts of academy graduates Josh Jones and Carl Forster.

Centre Jones, 19, who has scored four tries in eight appearances for Saints in his debut season, has put pen-to-paper on a three-year deal.

Forster, 20, who plays as prop, enjoyed Grand Final success with Saints' academy and signed a two-year deal.

Acting head coach Mike Rush said: "They now need to continue their development and keep their feet on the ground."

He added: "If they do that there's no doubt they can have big futures in the game."
