Cronulla Sharks half-back Adam Dykes has signed for Hull FC on a two-year deal from the start of next season.
The 30-year-old has played 189 games for the Sharks, scoring 52 tries, in two spells at the club from 1995-2001 and 2005 to date.

Hull coach Peter Sharp said: "I am delighted to have signed Adam. He is a very smart player and will provide strong leadership and direction.

"His left foot will provide a nice variation to our kicking game."

Dykes added: "I'm really looking forward to making the move to Hull. I've always wanted to have a shot at Super League and the Challenge Cup.

"Hull is a great club to try and achieve these goals with."

Good on Dykesy. He'll kill it over there. He's been a great Sharkie and will be missed, but I'm excited about his 5/8 replacement arriving next year, young Blake Green from Parra.
