Catalans forward Remi Casty is facing a spell on the side lies after breaking his hand in the defeat to St Helens last Friday.

Casty, 30, put in a stellar performance on his first game back for the Dragons since returning from the NRL.

He will definitely miss the first home game of the season against Castleford on Saturday, but the club haven’t revealed how long he is expected to be out for.

Meanwhile, centre Willie Tonga, who was knocked out after just 12 seconds of the game at Langtree Park, has returned to training and should be available for the game against the Tigers.
