Raiders sign English player Matty Nicholson to continue tradition of recruiting UK talent.
There's a bit of buzz around Raiders HQ for the team's newest English import, Matty Nicholson, as his signing continues the club's proud history of recruiting UK talent.
Nicholson's signing was confirmed last week with the Raiders announcing he will join the Green Machine next season on a three-year deal.
The second-rower is set to replace outgoing fellow England international Elliott Whitehead, but will join countryman Morgan Smithies in the Raiders squad.
