Red Star Belgrade Rugby League Club are very pleased to announce the mid-seasoning signing of Scotland Under 19 rugby league half back Fergus Simpson. Fergus\u2019 inclusion in the Red Star squad will help the team cover injuries and disruptions due to the impact of the Covid 19 impact and allows Fergus to continue his growth and expansion of knowledge in the game of rugby league. Fergus, still to turn 20, has a decorated junior career in both codes of the game and has played for Newcastle Thunder Under 19\u2019s and represented Brisbane in both codes at junior age levels, showing his adaptability and love of travel. Fergus will be the second Scotland Under 19\u2019s representative to have played for the red and white after Sam Herron<\/strong>.<\/p>

Red Star Belgrade Rugby League Club Managing Director, Colin Kleyweg<\/strong> praised the attitude of Fergus in his statement for the club, saying:

\u201cFergus, and his father have been in contact through the first months of 2021 seeking opportunities to play rugby league. While we initially held discussions providing general advice on rugby league opportunities, it became apparent in conversations with Fergus and his father that Fergus is a brilliant young man deserving of opportunities in the game, from a supportive and strong family. Fergus and his father have shown commitment to our club and have supported our initiatives to grow the game in Serbia and with his excellent CV in rugby league and talent in a key play-making position like half back, it became pretty obvious we would be an excellent fit in his journey both in sport and in life. We are really excited to see how this relationship develops and to working with Fergus on his game.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
