Meet Melbourne Storm and Leeds Rhinos stars

Players from the Leeds Rhinos and Melbourne Storm Rugby League teams will take part in a signing session at the White Rose Shopping Centre in Leeds on Wednesday February 24 between 6.00pm and 7.00pm.

Leeds Rhinos stars Danny Buderus, Greg Eastwood, Brett Delaney and Luke Burgess will be joined by NRL players including Greg Inglis, Jeff Lima and Kevin Proctor to sign autographs at the event in the build up to the Gillette World Club Challenge which takes place on February 28.

The signing session will take place in the Central Atrium on the ground floor just in front of the glass lifts at the Shopping Centre in Leeds.

Super League Marketing Manager Phil Williams said: “It’s a great chance for supporters to meet some of the best Rugby League players in the world and a unique opportunity to speak to some of the top players in the NRL.

“The last signing session we had at the White Rose Centre with the England and New Zealand teams during the Gillette Four Nations competition proved immensely popular so I would advise fans to get down to the shopping centre early.”

Led by Craig Bellamy, Storm will be looking to build on their recent NRL Grand Final success where they beat Paramatta Eeels 23-16 and with the likes of Cameron Smith, Ryan Hoffman, Billy Slater and Golden Boot winner Greg Inglis in their line-up, it promises to be an epic encounter.

Storm will be in confident mood ahead of the final at Elland Road, Leeds, after Australia’s victorious Gillette Four Nations campaign in which Inglis, Slater and Smith scored five tries in the 46 -16 victory over England in the final.

Tickets for the Gillette World Club Challenge at Elland Road on Sunday February 28 are now available and prices start from £20 or £10 concessions.

Family tickets are also available from £40 and include two adult tickets and two child’s tickets.
