St Helens R.F.C. confirmed the signing of Leigh Centurions forward James Bell on a two-year contract in 2022.
Bell, 27, was one of Leigh’s top performers during their difficult campaign playing 18 times, scoring one try with five assists and Kristian Woolf has added the Scottish international to his pack for 2022.
Prior to joining Super League, Bell made two NRL appearances for New Zealand Warriors back in 2017, before spending two years in France for Toulouse Olympique where he made 27 appearances scoring 10 tries.
Bell played in the New Zealand Warriors’ 2014 NYC Grand Final win over the Brisbane Broncos. A year later he graduated to the Warriors’ New South Wales Cup team and in 2016 he was named the side’s man of the year whilst he also captained the New Zealand Māori rugby league team.
Bell has also played for Scotland on five occasions, including in the 2017 Rugby League World Cup.
