Post subject:  ORL get Castleford Tigers forward, Ryan Backhouse

Tim Rumford has been keeping tabs on versatile forward Ryan Backhouse and following positive talks, he’s secured his services for the Blues. Backhouse is a product of the Castleford Tigers Academy and has good League 1 experience with York and some Championship games under his belt with Hunslet Hawks in 2015.

Rumford said on his new recruit “Ryan is a good addition to our squad, he’s a tough lad who’s maturing into a strong running player. Even though he’s only 22 he’s gained some solid experience and has had an excellent rugby league education in the Tigers academy. Oxford is a club of opportunity to progress and this is a good one for Ryan to grasp and kick on.”

Backhouse added “I’ve known Tim for quite a while and have a high regard for him as a coach. He’s passionate about the game and developing players. I appreciate Tim giving me the opportunity and I’m really excited about to getting stuck in and up to running speed with the boys. I want to make the most of this and do my best for the Blues.”

Rumford closed by saying “Ryan’s a positive character and even though he’s still a young lad, his experience will make him seem an old head in our squad and I’m looking forward to working with him and seeing what he brings to our group.”
