Castleford Tigers have signed forward Tyler Dupree and full-back Phoenix Laulu-Togaga'e with immediate effect.

Dupree had been on loan at Toulouse for the season from Wigan Warriors, but the 26-year-old will now join the Tigers on a contract until the end of the 2029 season.

Australian-born Laulu-Togaga'e, 23, had been in France with Catalans Dragons this season, but he has also signed for the Tigers on a three-and-a-half-year deal.

"I'm delighted to get both players over the line," Tigers' director of rugby Chris Chester told the club website.

"Tyler competes hard in everything he does. He is a winner and gives us some much needed power up front in the pack.

"Phoenix can play in a number of positions in the backline and we will use him primarily at full-back to cover the loss of Blake Taaffe."

Castleford are 12th in Super League with three wins from their nine games this season.
