SYDNEY - Former Brisbane Broncos prop Greg Eastwood has signed with the Bulldogs on a three-year NRL deal.

The New Zealand international trained with the team for the first time this morning.

Eastwood was prevented from joining English Super League team Leeds due to visa restrictions.

Eastwood has appealed the decision to reject his visa application and if the appeal is successful he has an option to join Leeds at the end of the Bulldogs' 2009 NRL season.

Eastwood, 22, spent the past few months training by himself on the Gold Coast and said he was happy to join the Bulldogs.

"The Bulldogs are a great option for me, I'm looking forward to joining the boys and getting stuck in," he said.
