MIKE EMMETT has become the sixth player at Cougars to commit to the club until the end of 2018.

The loose forward joined Keighley in the off-season from York City Knights and has caught the eye with a number of impressive performances in pre-season, including a full 80 minutes at Batley Bulldogs.

He is already being tipped as a potential future captain at the club.

Emmett joins Will Milner, Nathan Kitson, Adam Ryder, Matty Beharrell and Josh Lynam as squad members contracted to Cougars for the next two seasons.
