Hull KR forward Clint Newton has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a knee injury.

The 27-year-old second-rower, who joined the club from Melbourne Storm in the winter, sustained the injury in Rovers' 26-18 defeat by Wakefield last month.

"It's a massive blow to lose Clint," coach Justin Morgan told the Hull Daily Mail. "I had hoped he could play some part for us between now and the end of the season, but it's not to be."
