Huddersfield Giants have bolstered their backline with the loan signing of Jacob Douglas, who joins from St Helens for the remainder of the season.

The 22 year old moved to Saints from Wigan earlier this year and has previously been out on loan to Bradford Bulls.

Giants' Director of Rugby Andy Kelly said: "To add to the squad and support the coaching staff, we have quickly moved to bring in Jacob Douglas."

"He brings a tenacious approach to his game, he is quick and strong and will enhance any scoring opportunities in the game this weekend."

Douglas is available for selection for the trip to Wigan on Saturday.
