St Helens have signed Scotland international Adam Walker from relegated Hull KR on a two-year contract.
Saints say they fought off competition from other Super League clubs to land the 25-year-old former Huddersfield prop, who became a free agent when Rovers were consigned to the Kingstone Press Championship after losing to Salford in the Million Pound Game.
"Adam is a hard-working forward who will complement the dynamic pack we already have at the Saints," said coach Keiron Cunningham.
"Along with his size, he has a big engine, good footwork and at 25 years old it's fair to say he hasn't hit his peak yet.
"We're looking forward to seeing him develop further at the club."
Walker is St Helens' fourth confirmed signing for the 2017 campaign, with NRL duo Luke Douglas and Ryan Morgan, as well as Wigan scrum-half Matty Smith, on their way to Langtree Park.
