It's fair to say the Warrior Nation was pretty excited by the unveiling of Glasgow's latest recruit - we take a look at some of the best social media reaction to the Australian's signing...
As soon as the teasers were posted, the Warrior Nation were off the mark in trying to identify the newest member of the club…
? As teased by Danny Wilson on Warriors Weekly…

The position I think most fans are eager to see a new player in. Arguably the missing piece of the puzzle for next season.

6pm? Come on guys! Unless… is that some sort of cryptic clue? Or are you just looking to torture us a bit? It’s been a tough enough weekend!

Safe to say Jack was a popular man once his signing was officially confirmed at 6pm, with supporters thrilled at the Wallabies back-rower agreeing to join the Warriors.
✍️ Wallabies to Warriors
14-times capped Australian back-rower Jack Dempsey is heading to Scotstoun this summer, as the 26-year-old becomes Head Coach Danny Wilson’s latest new signing ahead of the 2021/22 campaign.#WhateverItTakes ⚔️?️

Kudos to those of you that correctly identified Jack’s signing pre-reveal, by the way…

A couple of Scotland’s premier rugby journalists were also quick to express their approval of Glasgow’s newest Warrior.
Glasgow’s recruitment has been pretty meh for a while, but this is a serious statement of intent https://t.co/9u8qvuN6I7
— Mark Palmer (@MarkPalmerST) February 14, 2021
This is a very good signing. High-calibre international who carries very powerfully, is 26 years old and can play across the back-row. https://t.co/TDcrzS4laE

To end, though – how better to react to a signing announcement on Valentine’s Day than with this?…
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,@GlasgowWarriors just signed Jack Dempsey,Who needs this to rhyme? #HappyDays #ValentinesPresent #LoveABackRow
