O'Hehir has linked with Woolgoolga for next season.

Inglis is also heading to the competition, with the Queensland State Of Origin star playing with his hometown club Macksville, while Burgess will coach Orara Valley.

O'Hehir is looking forward to the challenge.

"It should be really good," O'Hehir said.

"I didn't know a lot about it until this year but they've got some good signings.

"Greg Inglis is playing for Macksville, Sam Burgess is coaching Orara and I think that will bring a lot of interest into the comp.

"It might bring some other potential recruits to the comp as well."

The chance to take on some big names has O'Hehir even more excited about the move.

"They are two players I grew up watching so to be able to potentially play against Sam and definitely against Greg is amazing really," he said.

"It is nice to be recognised but it could have gone to anyone in that team.

"I thought we were finishing really well but I'm sure they will be fine next year."
