Featherstone have signed full-back Will Dagger from Hull KR on a one-month loan deal.

The 20-year-old arrives from Super League side Hull KR and is a former Warrington academy player.

An ex-England Academy international, Dagger has made nine appearances for Rovers this season, scoring one try.

Featherstone boss Ryan Carr said: “We have been looking to strengthen the squad for a couple of weeks and we are low on outside backs at the moment.

“Will has spent some time this season playing for Hull KR in Super League and arrives at the LD Nutrition Stadium with a great reputation.

“He is a dynamic player with plenty of pace and will fit in very well here.

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank Tony Smith and Mike Smith for allowing the deal to come together quickly.”
