Ex-Castleford Tigers and Featherstone Rovers forward Jesse Sene-Lefao released by Sheffield Eagles

JESSE SENE-LEFAO has been released from Sheffield Eagles by mutual consent.

The 35-year-old joined the Eagles back in 2023 from Featherstone Rovers, and went on to score 11 tries in 46 appearances for the club over the last two seasons.

Sheffield said in a statement: “We’d like to thank Jesse for all he has done for Sheffield Eagles and we wish him the best with his future endeavours.”

Sene-Lefao was a big hit when he first arrived on these shores in 2017 with the Castleford Tigers in Super League following NRL stints at Manly Sea Eagles and Cronulla Sharks.

The back-rower helped the Tigers to their first-ever League Leaders’ Shield that season as well as their one and only Super League Grand Final appearance.
