Kieran Dixon believes Hull KR's new-look back line can take Super League by storm next season after finalising terms on a three-year deal.
Dixon is one of four new backs signed by the Robins to bring more speed to their outside edge, having lacked real pace in recent years. With Darrell Goulding, Ken Sio and Josh Mantellato already signed up, Dixon is excited about joining the pace aces in east Hull for 2015.
The 22-year-old exploded onto the Super League scene in 2012 for London, scoring 38 tries in just 52 games before a knee injury suffered on England Knights duty ruled him out for the majority of this season.
He marked his return to the Broncos with a try in Sunday's shock 40-36 win over Leeds, to register their first win of the season at the 24th time of asking.
And he's planning to make people sit up and take notice of him again next season by running in plenty of tries.
"The signings Rovers have made for next season shows the direction they want to go," Dixon told the Mail. "Ken Sio has made his name in the NRL and you have to be good to play at that level.
"Darrell Goulding is a great centre with good hands who can run and pass the ball equally well.
"Josh Mantellato has a very good try scoring record in Australia.
"I'm sure we will gel quickly as a group. We will certainly have that surprise element next season because nobody will have seen us play as a unit.
"They may know about us as individuals, but not as a group of backs."
Whilst Dixon will arrive in east Hull for next season, the future of co-captain Travis Burns is shrouded in doubt after reports surfaced that St Helens are prepared to pay £100,000 to take him to Langtree Park.
With one year left on the deal he signed when joining Rovers ahead of the 2013 season, the Mail understands the club would be willing to cash in on Burns if a suitable fee could be agreed.
Burns may have racked up 20 assists and four 40/20s this season, but the club have a history of doing deals which they feel are in their best interests.
In recent years, Wigan snapped up both Blake Green and Scott Taylor for big fees, whilst Josh Hodgson is heading to Canberra Raiders for 2015 following a £100,000 deal.
Although Burns' departure would leave a big hole to fill in the half-backs for next season, if he does go, it is understood that Rovers would be keen to bring in controversial Cronulla Sharks half-back Todd Carney.
Carney's career in the NRL is all-but over after another recent off-field incident, but any deal would obviously hinge on him being granted a visa.
Huddersfield struggled to get him into the country back in 2009 before eventually turning their back on a deal, whilst Catalan remain keen to sign the 28-year-old.
Parramatta half-back Chris Sandow is another name Rovers are being linked with, on the back of signing club-mate Sio.
