engage Super League Grand Finalists Leeds Rhinos have announced today that Jordan Tansey, 22, has agreed a new deal with the club that will see him spend the next two seasons in Australia with Sydney Roosters before returning to Headingley Carnegie in 2011.

Tansey had one year remaining on his current contract however the Rhinos have agreed to release him from that final year after negotiating the new deal.

Commenting on the announcement Chief Executive Gary Hetherington said, "We recognise that Jordan's opportunities have been limited in his favoured positions of full back or in the half backs because of the presence of world class players like Brent Webb, Rob Burrow and Danny McGuire at the club. This is a fantastic opportunity for him to go and play in the NRL and hopefully he will return in 2011 to put his experience to use with the Rhinos."

Tansey has started just 19 of the 52 games he has played with the Rhinos since making his debut in March 2006. He has scored 21 tries including a hat trick against Castleford at Headingley Carnegie back in August.
