In 2019, the season Salford reached the Betfred Super League Grand Final, Dudson was named Players' Player and Backroom Team Player of the Year.

He started in both the Grand Final and just over year later at Wembley Stadium, where Salford Red Devils were beaten by Leeds Rhinos in the Challenge Cup Final.

Since leaving Salford, Dudson has enjoyed spells at both Catalans Dragons and parent-club, Warrington Wolves, before making this switch for the 2024 season.

Upon welcoming Dudson back to the club for 2024, head coach, Paul Rowley said: "I'm very happy to welcome Gil back to the club. He's a very intelligent footballer and gives us much needed reinforcements to our middle unit.

"Having worked closely with Gil before I have trust in his ability and more importantly, I know he is the type of character that will fit into, and compliment our environment, which is one we are extremely protective, and proud of."

Director of Rugby and Operations, Ian Blease added: "Once we knew Gil was available, we were quick to secure his signature again.

"It is a pleasure to welcome Gil back to the club. It is important to the coaching staff and players that when we bring an ex-player back into our environment he will enhance our drive, and ambition as a club.

"Gil will certainly do that; he is a winner and a very experienced Super League player. I personally can not wait to see him back in the Red Devils shirt."
