Sammut, 27, began the season at Bradford before moving to Wakefield in February and made 15 consecutive appearances until losing his place under new coach James Webster.

Sammut is the second Australian half-back to make the move from the Wildcats to Featherstone, who took Harry Siejka on loan earlier this month.

Meanwhile, Rovers second row forward Liam Walsmley and centre/winger Lewis Price have both joined Hunslet Hawks for a month’s loan.
