KEIGHLEY Cougars have made Emmerson Whittel their eighth signing for the 2017 season.
The second-row forward arrives at Cougar Park following two years with University of Gloucestershire All Golds in which he made 46 appearances for Lee Greenwood’s side, scoring five tries.
Before moving south, 21-year-old Whittel came through the Bradford Bulls Academy, making his one and only senior appearance for Bradford in the final round of the 2014 Super League season as the already-relegated Bulls recorded a 46-36 victory at London Broncos.
