Playing career

London Broncos

Kieran Dixon made his debut for London Broncos in the 24-34 defeat by St. Helens in the Super League match at Twickenham Stoop on 4 February 2012.[2] He scored his first try against Wakefield Trinity at the Twickenham Stoop in a 36-0 win.

Hull KR

After a serious injury ruled him out for the most of the 2014 season, Dixon joined Hull KR in 2015. He appeared for Rovers in the 2015 Challenge Cup final, however his performance in the match was heavily criticized as the team suffered a record-breaking 50-0 defeat to Leeds Rhinos.[3][4] The following week, Dixon bounced back to score two tries in a man-of-the-match display as Hull KR beat Wakefield.[5] And on 12th 09-15 went 2 better with yet another man of the match performance and 4 tries against Bradford in a match that made sure Rovers secured Super league status for the next season.[6]
