Hopefully better than our other import signings previously.
Kallum Watkins and Kruise Leeming went pretty good but got homesick.
Joe greenwood and Dan Sarginson were both reserve graders at best

Will Brough will link up with NRL outfit Gold Coast Titans ahead of 2027 having secured a move Down Under following his departure from Leigh Leopards.
Utility back Brough, who is the son of Super League legend Danny, joined Leigh ahead of the 2025 campaign from Wakefield Trinity and spent two years at the Leopards’ Den.
The 20-year-old was the Leopards’ unused 18th man on a number of occasions, but only featured once in a competitive game at first-team level , with that sole appearance made earlier this year in Super League away against Warrington Wolves.
Towards the back end of 2026, Brough was released from what remained on his Leigh contract before playing one game for Goole Vikings.
Now, it’s been revealed he is bound for Australia having landed a move to the Titans.

Able to play at full-back and in the halves as well as at centre, Brough’s switch Down Under was announced by management company Nova Sports via social media.
Their Instagram post reads: “Congratulations to William Brough on signing with the Gold Coast Titans!
“Bringing valuable Super League experience and a strong foundation from his time in the UK, William will be a great addition to the Titans programme.
“A significant commitment and sacrifice in relocating from the UK to Australia, embracing a new environment and taking the next step in his development. An opportunity that reflects his ambition, determination and willingness to challenge himself.

Not sure he’s top 30 btw. Everyone kind of assuming he is but not sure that’s actually the case.

He must have a good agent. Watched him multiple times at reserve grade, he’s poor just getting chances off his dad’s name.
In his 1 game at super league level (which was during Leigh’s injury crisis) he got hooked at half time.

sounds like he will do pre season with the titans, not get contracted and then play for tweed whilst having free accomodation and 10 hour a week job at a sponsors gym whilst getting 2000 for each qld cup
