Hull KR stun St Helens with last gasp try from Fisher

Ben Fisher was the hero for Hull Kingston Rovers with a match-winning try two minutes from time in a hugely entertaining Engage Super League match at Craven Park.

Rovers welcomed back winger Liam Colbon and pack man Ben Galea, the Australian making his first league start of the season after suffering a knee injury in a pre-season match against Bradford Bulls. He replaced Matt Cook in the hosts' line-up.

St Helens were without Jon Wilkin among a long list of casualties and for prop Nick Fozzard it was a return to Craven Park, where he spent last season.

Rovers came into the match after getting back on the winning track with a narrow 24-20 win at Castleford Tigers, while St Helens edged out Wakefield Trinity Wildcats 22-16.

After the early sparring it was Saints who took an eighth-minute lead when Gary Wheeler touched down a Leon Pryce kick for an unconverted try.

Rovers went close on 14 minutes when Shaun Briscoe was held up over the line but a minute later Jonny Lomax failed to sort out a Michael Dobson kick and Galea celebrated his return by touching down with Dobson converting.

Then Rovers added two more tries in two minutes from Liam Colbon who was sent in for the first on 21 minutes by Kris Welham and Welham and Dobson set up his second, Dobson converting the second score.

St Helens fought back and a spilled ball by the home defence let Kyle Eastmond in for an unconverted try on 27 minutes.

Five minutes before the break Welham was penalised for obstruction and from the play which followed Scott Moore touched down with Eastmond converting.

And on 39 minutes the home defence relaxed and Francis Meli strolled in to score with Eastmond's conversion taking Saints into a 20-16 half-time lead.

Three minutes into the second half Rovers moved the ball along the left where Colbon squeezed in at the corner for his hat-trick and Dobson produced a superb touchline conversion to see his side back into a 22-20 lead.

Pryce and Tony Puletua were held up over the line on 56 minutes but a minute later Chris Dean put Saints back ahead with an unconverted try.

As the clock ticked down Rovers mounted attack after attack and in the 78th minute the pressure paid off when hooker Fisher touched down under the posts with Dobson converting.
