The Newcastle Knights is pleased to announce the signing of Jamie Buhrer.

Buhrer joins the Club from the Manly Sea Eagles, on a two-year contract.

Buhrer made his NRL debut in 2010 and has played 120 games for Manly, including a premiership in 2011.

The 26-year-old can play in the second-row, at lock and hooker.

โ€œJamie is a natural footballer and a player that covers a number of positions,โ€ coach Nathan Brown said.

โ€œImportantly Jamie is a mature player and will help with the growth of our younger players.

โ€œJamie is a good leader, trainer and talker, and will be an important addition to our squad.

โ€œHe knows what is required to win and what it takes to win a grand final; he really comes to Newcastle with great experience.โ€

Buhrer will commence pre-season with the Knights on November 1.
