Mick Dobson has signed for Catalans Dragons from Canberra Raiders as a temporary replacement for Stacey Jones.

With scrum-half Jones expected to be sidelined for another four to six weeks after braking his arm he against Salford, Dobson, a former Australian schoolboy international will fill in.

Dobson, who will join up with his new team-mates on Monday, should be available to make his first start against Leeds on Saturday, 11 March.
