Unsure about his future at one point, there is now no further uncertainty, with Parramatta Eels winger Reece Robinson signing with Super Rugby side, the NSW Waratahs.
The deal will run for two years from the 2016 season and will add increased depth to the Waratahs side.
Previously, Robinson had played for the Canberra Raiders among numerous positions and most recently for the Eels, playing at both wing and fullback at different stages throughout the year.
The Waratahs are confident that Robinson can do a good job for them and that his versatility and experience can help them moving forward.
“Reece will add a lot to our squad, we’re really pleased to have secured him for the 2016 season onwards,†Waratahs Head Coach, Daryl Gibson said.
“He’s an excellent finisher, and his versatility across the field and experience in rugby league will definitely bring something different to the team – and to be able to add someone of his quality to our back three depth is a real bonus for us.
“We’ve got proven experience in transitioning league players into the rugby environment and we’re constantly improving this development process, we’re confident that Reece will achieve success with us and look to players like Israel and Sam [Lousi] for guidance along the way.â€
The Lebanese international is no stranger to Union, having played it in high school and he looks forward to the challenge that lies ahead for him.
“I’m really looking forward to the challenge of returning to rugby union after my time in league,†Robinson said.
“I played [union] all through high school, though that was at scrum-half, so hopefully it won’t take too long to get back into it.
“I’ve watched a fair bit of the Waratahs over the past few seasons and watching guys like Israel and Kurtley play some exciting footy has been fantastic, I can’t wait to get out there and play with them.â€
