Salford City Reds have signed Australian utility back Joel Moon and Crusaders RL prop forward Jordan James on two-year deals.

Twenty-three-year-old Moon, who will link up with the Reds in pre-season from New Zealand Warriors, is seen as a replacement for Warrington Wolves-bound Stefan Ratchford, although he can also play centre, second row and loose forward.

James, 31, a Wales international, is the latest Crusaders player to secure his future away from the Wrexham club, who play their final Engage Super League game at Wigan Warriors tomorrow.

He played for Wigan and Widnes before heading to south Wales to link up with Crusaders in their inaugural Super League campaign.
