Leeds have signed impressive flanker Jon Dunbar from their Zurich Premiership rivals Newcastle. Dunbar, a member of Falcons' Powergen Cup final-winning team this season and an England Under-21 international, has agreed a two-year contract.
"Jon is a very exciting and experienced player, despite only being 24," said Leeds rugby director Phil Davies.
"He is a great addition to our squad and I am sure that we can improve him into an even better player."
