Sky Bet

Ben Fisher has signed for Championship side Batley Bulldogs after not being offered a new contract by Hull KR at the end of last season.

The 30-year-old Sydney-born hooker played for Sydney Roosters, North Sydney Bears and Halifax before joining Hull KR and represented Scotland in the 2008 World Cup.

He made 124 appearances in Super League after helping Rovers win promotion in 2006.

"There have been a fair number of high quality, established Super League players who have taken the step to the Championship and Ben's one of them," said new Batley coach John Kear.
