Leigh Leopards have signed Australian back rower Ben Condon on a two-year deal from 2025.
The 24-year-old has played in the National Rugby League (NRL) for both the North Queensland Cowboys and the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles.
Condon made his debut for the Cowboys during the 2020 season and has made 17 appearances in the NRL across his spells in Queensland and Manly.
"Ben is a big, athletic back rower who can also play as a middle," Leigh's head of rugby Chris Chester
"We jumped at the opportunity to sign him as he is a player we have had our eye on for a number of months now.
"Ben fits the mould of what we look for in back rowers and middles. He's a big body with good leg speed and good defence, and he's an all-round good guy as well.
"He should fit in well into our systems we have in place here and he comes with a good pedigree. I'm glad we have got him signed up at the Leopards for the next two years."
