The South Sydney Rabbitohs have bolstered their forward stocks heading into next season with the signing of former Storm hardman Garret Crossman for two years.

Crossman, 25, played with Hull KR in the UK Super League in 2008, having previously won an NRL premiership with the Melbourne Storm in 2007.

He made his NRL debut for the Penrith Panthers in 2004 before joining the Storm in 2006, and has played 59 NRL games and 25 matches in the UK Super League.

Rabbitohs CEO Shane Richardson says the introduction of Crossman to the club will add some starch to the Rabbitohs forward pack in 2009 and beyond.

"Crossman is a hard working, tough front-rower who will complement our forward pack," said Richardson.

"Garret knows what it takes to win in the NRL having played with the premiership-winning Melbourne Storm team, and he has played strongly in the Super League this season for Hull KR. He’s keen to come home and perform for the Rabbitohs in the NRL, and we’re looking forward to having him join the squad in November."
