Hull KR have signed former Canberra Raiders half-back Terry Campese on a one-year deal.

The 30-year-old ex-Australia player left the NRL side at the end of last season after three years as captain.

"I've been at the Raiders my whole career but it's time to move on. This is a new challenge for me and one I'm really looking forward to," he said.

"I'm excited, I can't wait and I'm looking forward to experiencing the Super League competition."

Coach Chris Chester added: "Terry is a true professional who has played at the very highest level and he'll bring a wealth of knowledge to the squad next year.

"We've lost a bit of experience from last season and it was important we brought in players with leadership qualities to complement a young and exciting crop of players at the club."
