Australia star Michael Crocker has completed a surprise move from Melbourne Storm to Super League club Hull.

Crocker, 27, has been released from the final year of his contract with Melbourne and will join Hull on a three-year contract next season.

The highly-rated Queensland back rower is Hull coach Richard Agar's first signing only a day after he took charge at the KC Stadium.

Agar believes Crocker will add a winning mentality to his team.

"He's a winner, who goes through the front door and takes people with him. Michael is a world-class player who will add steel, aggression and leadership to our pack," he said.

Crocker added: "This is an exciting move for me and I am delighted to be joining a top club like Hull and one with so much ambition as well as history.

"The club have tasted success in recent years and they are obviously hungry for more. Hopefully, I can help them towards those goals."
