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 Kingston Rovers
After a serious injury ruled him out for the most of the 2014 season, Dixon joined Hull Kingston Rovers in 2015. He appeared for Rovers in the 2015 Challenge Cup final, however his performance in the match was heavily criticised as the team suffered a record-breaking 50-0 defeat to Leeds.[3][4] The following week, Dixon bounced back to score two tries in a man-of-the-match display as Hull Kingston Rovers beat Wakefield Trinity.[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]
Return to London
Dixon re-signed for the London Broncos after Hull KR was relegated from Super League taking up the offer to return to his home club for ther 2017 and 2018 seasons.[7]
