NRL premiers Melbourne have signed Newcastle winger Luke MacDougall and Bulldogs prop John Kite.

The club announced the deals on Tuesday with the pair joining fellow off-season signing Todd Lowrie from beaten grand finalists Parramatta.

Storm coach Craig Bellamy said he was confident the players could make an impact for the premiers next year.

"Todd and Luke are both accomplished NRL players while John is a big body with huge upside," he said.

"We're very comfortable with where were at with regards to our squad for next year."

Lowrie and Kite have both signed two-year deals with MacDougall agreeing a one-year contract.

Former Newcastle backrower Lowrie said moving to Melbourne presented him with an exciting challenge.

"I'm thrilled at being able to join such a successful club, particularly given the way the Eels ended last season, said Lowrie.
