A product of the Cas Academy, Greg will now represent the Tigers for the sixth consecutive year and the flying winger will be ready to continue his incredible try-scoring record this season.

Greg is another player to have represented Lock Lane at the amateur level before coming through the system at Wheldon Road and the wing made an instant impact on debut, as he scored and assisted against Warrington in 2011.

After one season at senior level at Cas, Greg joined fellow Super League side Huddersfield Giants for a year before moving to Hull KR.

The 31-year-old spent three years at The Robbins until an opportunity to play in the NRL came about with the Brisbane Broncos.

Greg only made seven appearances in Australia, however, on his return to England and the Tigers, Eden certainly made up for lost time. During Castleford’s 2017 League Leaders Shield winning season, the winger notched an incredible 41 tries in 31 games.

Eden has been a consistent scorer ever since for the Fords and went on an incredible run of scoring six tries in three matches against Leeds, Wakefield, and Saint Helens last year. Making Greg's record heading into the 2022 season 89 tries in 87 matches for Castleford - that is simply astonishing.

Greg has been spending pre-season easing himself back to full fitness in time to produce many more try-scoring displays this campaign!
