Liam Sutcliffe joins the Dons on a two-year deal

Doncaster Rugby League has signed Super League Grand Final and two-time Challenge Cup winner Liam Sutcliffe on a two-year deal.

Sutcliffe joins from Midlands Hurricanes and brings a decade of top-flight experience into the squad for the 2027 season.

Sutcliffe came through the Leeds Rhinos system and won the Grand Final and two Challenge Cups there. He went on to play Super League for Hull FC and Huddersfield Giants, and has represented England and the England Knights. He can play in several positions, so he gives head coach Richard Horne options across the backline and back row.

Sutcliffe said the club’s direction was a big reason he signed.

“The vision of the club and how they’ve been going over the last few years is really something that’s on the up, and it’s exciting to be a part of,” he said.

“It’s been everyone buying into the same goal and the same systems, and that’s something that can really help you do something special.”

Sutcliffe is the latest addition as the Dons build towards 2027.
