St Helens and Leigh have had a long-standing dual-registration partnership over the past four seasons, which has allowed the likes of Tom Nisbet and Aaron Smith to join the Centurions on loan.

James Bell will be part of Leigh’s squad to take on Dewsbury at the Tetley’s Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

The New Zealand-born forward will be hoping to get as much game-time under his belt as possible from now until the end of the season, with Scotland’s World Cup campaign on the horizon.
