St.Helens R.F.C. have confirmed the signing of talented hooker Tom Forber on a three-year deal.

The 23-year-old, originally from Warrington, returns to the town of St Helens, where he played as an amateur at Blackbrook before joining Wigan’s youth development programme as a teenager.

Already getting to work with his new teammates, Forber has got stuck into St.Helens’ pre-season preparations, which have begun in earnest.

Tom sat down for his first official club interview with Saints TV and discussed how excited he is for a fresh start, the competition in the hooking ranks at St.Helens, and whether he calls himself a ‘Brooker’ following his time at Blackbrook!
