The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs have added to the strength of their forward pack by signing South Sydney front-rower Dean Britt for the next two seasons.

Dean is the son of former Bulldogs legend Darren Britt, who was a major part of the club's success in the 90's.

The 25 year-old has been with the Rabbitohs for three years and has played a major role this season, appearing in nine NRL matches for them.

Bulldogs Chief Executive Andrew Hill was delighted at being able to secure the services of the versatile front-rower :

"Dean is an excellent forward who will provide another important piece for our forward pack next season. He has shown this year with his performances for the Rabbitohs that he is hard-working and tough and has the attributes that we as a club are looking for to take us forward. He has a great background in what the Bulldogs stand for with his father Darren having been such a major part of the club in the 90's and we look forward to welcoming Dean to the Bulldog family next season."
