Brisbane Broncos forward Joshua Coric has officially signed with Hull FC in the Super League, starting in 2027.
Coric will make the switch to the Northern Hemisphere on a two-year deal to bolster the club's forward stocks.
The 24-year-old made his NRL debut for the Broncos in Round 18 against the Cronulla Sharks, playing 34 minutes off the interchange bench in his lone appearance in the top grade.
Coric has been a standout player for the Broncos feeder club, the Wynnum Manly Seagulls, notching 40 tackle breaks, scoring eight tries in 18 matches and averaging 150 metres per game with Steeden in hand during 2026.
Hull FC continue their impressive recruitment drive, headlined by NRL superstar Daly Cherry-Evans, who has agreed to terms to don the black and white in 2027 in what is one of the most significant signings in the club's history.
Coric says he is thrilled to continue his rugby league journey with the club and remains excited about what his future holds in England.
“I'm really excited to be joining Hull FC and taking the next step in my career in Super League. It's a massive opportunity for me and one I'm really looking forward to," Coric said in a club statement.
“After speaking with the club and Steve McNamara, I felt Hull FC was the right place for me to continue developing, challenge myself and take my game to the next level, both as a player and as a person.
“I'm really looking forward to the challenge of playing in Super League and being part of the Hull FC forward pack. I know the competition is going to be tough and demanding, but that's exactly what I'm looking for at this stage of my career.
"I'm excited to test myself against some of the best players in the game and learn from the experience.
“I'm excited to get started, learn from the players and coaches around me, and work hard to earn my place in the team. I want to contribute to the club both on and off the field and play my part in helping Hull FC move forward.
"I'm ready for the challenge, really grateful for the opportunity and can't wait to get over there and get started.”
Coric will join Seagulls teammate Jordan Swann at the British club in 2027, while also recruiting Bailey Hodgson, Isaac Liu, Alrix Da Costa, and Cherry-Evans, capping off an elite recruitment push by coach Steve McNamara to ensure they return to Super League play-offs for the first time since 2020.
The Super League is in its second last round before the play-off series begin, with Hull FC sitting in 11th position with seven wins and 18 losses to its record in 2026.
They will face Toulouse on Friday (local time), then finish off their season against Leeds on September 11.
