LEEDS Tykes have bolstered their squad ahead of Friday night's crucial Premiership clash against Worcester Warriors at Headingley Carnegie with the signing of Rotherham captain Lee Blackett.
The 24-year-old will move to Leeds on loan until the end of the current season with prop James Isaacson going in the other direction.
Tykes director of rugby Phil Davies said: "Lee is a player we have been monitoring for a number of months.
"We have been hit badly by injuries to our back-line in particular and the capture of Lee added to our previous signing of Andy Craig will help alleviate some of those problems.
"At present we only have 20 players available for selection for Friday night's game which is obviously a concern."
