Fa'alogo signs for Newcastle Knights

Newcastle Knights have signed David Fa'alogo from Huddersfield for the 2013 NRL season.

The 32-year-old back-row forward, who won 12 caps for New Zealand, has spent the last three years in Super League after joining Huddersfield from South Sydney, but was not offered a new contract at the end of the 2012 season.

Knights coach Wayne Bennett said: "David is coming here on a one-year contract, with an option for a second year if he performs in 2013. He wanted to finish his career in Australia and at a club that is going places so that is pretty much the conversation we had."
