Leigh Leopards have signed forward Brad Martin from fellow Super League side Castleford Tigers on a two-year contract.

The 23-year-old has made 40 appearances for the Tigers since making his debut for the club in 2020.

Having come through Leeds Rhinos' academy, Martin joined the Tigers for the 2020 season and also spent time with Midlands Hurricanes on dual registration.

"Brad is a prop or lock forward who has gained good experience at Castleford, and I'm delighted he is joining us for 2025,"

Meanwhile, the Leopards have also signed fellow forward Ryan Brown, 19, from Wigan Warriors on a two-year deal.

Brown made 11 appearances during a loan spell with Barrow Raiders in 2024 and also played for Midlands Hurricanes on loan.

"Ryan really impressed playing for the academy and reserves at Wigan. He's a no-nonsense front rower who plays big minutes."
