Eagles chief executive Mark Aston wants to make the top four next season.

The Sheffield Eagles have signed the Papua New Guinea World Cup star Menzie Yere on a two-year contract.

The 25-year-old centre will arrive in in January 2009, and will join Kumuls forward Trevor Exton in Sheffield.

"He (Yere) is a very explosive, and a player that opposition teams will fear," Eagles chief executive Mark Aston told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"Menzie is a great catch for us, we are highly delighted. I think he can have as big an impact as Stanley Gene."
