Kevin Walters has been appointed as the new coach

Walters is set to join the Perpignan Super League club in October, replacing Mick Potter who will leave for St Helens at the end of the season.

Walters, who had a brief spell with Warrington in 2001, has plenty of experience in his homeland, making 315 appearances in Australia's National Rugby League.

After meeting with the club last week I had a great feeling about their passion and vision for the game

The 40-year-old made 22 State of Origin appearances and won two NRL titles with the Broncos, before cutting his coaching teeth at Brisbane.

Currently number two with Queensland and a trainer with the Kangaroos, Walters is looking forward to his new challenge.
