Josh Kerr, a forward from the St George Illawarra Dragons, is set to join Hull FC in the Super League for the 2027 season. A release from the Dragons allows him to pursue new opportunities, following a season where he averaged 55 running metres and made 321 tackles. Kerr's departure aligns with the Dragons' strategy to retain fellow player Tyrell Sloan, who plans to join Castleford Tigers. The 30-year-old has played 135 NRL games and has been a representative for the Indigenous All Stars for seven years. His contract with the Dragons was originally through the 2027 season, but permission to explore other options was granted.
