Hull Kingston Rovers have continued their recruitment for their Super League debut by adding assistant coach Mark Barnes to their ranks. Barnes, who has been part of Harlequins' backroom staff for the last two years, replaces Dean Sampson, who left the club in July.
Head coach Justin Morgan has been working without a right-hand man since Sampson's departure.
Rovers beat Widnes 29-16 in the League One Grand Final to reach Super League.
