Daly Cherry-Evans signs a one-year contract with Hull FC, departing the NRL to play in England’s Super League for the 2027 season. Multiple outlets describe the move as a surprise, with his switch confirmed as he ends his spell in Australia’s top rugby league.
BBC News reports he is a World Cup winner and frames the signing as Hull FC securing a high-profile half-back. ABC Australia and Sky Sports/other coverage emphasize the announcement itself, including that Cherry-Evans confirms his NRL exit after the Sydney Roosters’ season success. ABC Australia also highlights the timing of his confirmation following Roosters’ win, while the other reports focus more on the contract length and the Super League destination.
All accounts agree Hull FC is the new club for 2027 and that the deal runs for one year, with Cherry-Evans leaving the Sydney Roosters in the NRL.
