Background

Moran was born in Kingston upon Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire, England.

Club career

He began his professional career with home town club Hull KR. During his time with 'The Robins' he played just seven times in the senior side, making a debut performance off the bench against Widnes Vikings on 4 March 2016. Moran was then loaned out to League 1 team Newcastle Thunder. Here, he made three substitute appearances, but failed to make much of an impact and swiftly returned to Hull. After this loan spell, he was sent out to the York City Knights, who at the time were in financial trouble. The prop forward had a successful spell at York as he scored his first professional try against Rochdale in the Challenge Cup. He also scored another against Keighley Cougars in a 22–20 League 1 loss and went on to play a total of 18 games over the course of that season. On 1 December 2017 Championship side Sheffield Eagles announced that Moran had become their sixth new signing ahead of their return to Sheffield. In 2018 he played for Hemel Stags on dual registration before joining Keighley part way through the 2018 season.

International career

Moran was named in both Scotland squads for the 2016 Four Nations and 2017 World Cup but failed to make an appearance. He said, regarding the latter, "The World Cup was awesome, just getting out to Australia and being involved in the World Cup was maybe a once in a lifetime opportunity." His international debut came in the opening fixture of the 2018 Rugby League European Championship against Ireland where he came off the interchange bench in a 36–10 defeat. [3]
