Mathew Head (born 9 May 1982 in Wagga Wagga, New South Wales) is an Australian professional rugby league player for the St. George Illawarra Dragons.[1] He previously played for the Wests Tigers in the National Rugby League (NRL) and Hull FC in Super League. He primarily plays at half-back.

Career

St. George Illawarra Dragons

Head's career has been plagued by recurring knee injuries. However, when not injured he is known for his consistency and his ability to set up points and he adds spark in attack for his team. He also was the number one goal converter prior to his knee injuries.[citation needed]

Hull FC

In 2007, Head signed for Hull FC until the end of that season in a bid to help the club reach the Super League play-offs but injuries restricted his performance and availability for matches.[2][3]

Wests Tigers

In November, 2007, after announcing his desire to return to Australia, Head was signed by the Wests Tigers on a one-year contract.[4] Fitness levels and injuries again limited his time on field during the 2008 season.

Return to the St. George Illawarra Dragons

In August 2008, Head agreed to a return to the Dragons in 2009.[5]

  • First Grade Debut: Round 3, St George Illawarra v Canberra, Canberra Stadium, 29 March, 2003
