The Knights strengthened their forward pack over the off-season by recruiting Workington Town prop Fitzsimmons.

The front-rower earned a move to the Knights after strong 2022, which ended by claiming Workington’s Player of the Year award.

The Workington-born Fitzsimmons enjoyed four seasons at Derwent Park, having also played 48 times for Newcastle Thunder and began his professional career at Castleford Tigers, whom he featured twice for.
