Maria set for Catalan bow

Former Toulouse back-rower Antoni Maria could make his Super League debut for Catalan against Wakefield on Sunday.

Maria, 25, has spent the past few seasons playing in the Championship, but has impressed for the Dragons reserve side this term.

Joining him in Trent Robinson’s 19-man squad are Jamal Fakir and Clint Greenshields, who this week revealed he will leave the club at the end of the season, both recovering from injuries.

Setaimata Sa returns after his two match ban, but Robinson is still without injured quintet Steve Menzies, Ian Henderson, Louis Anderson, Cyril Stacul and Frederic Vaccari.

Winger Damien Blanch is also missing through illness.

Catalan 19-man squad v Wakefield: Greenshields, Pryce, Sa, Bosc, Dureau, Ferriol, Casty, Mounis, Raguin, Baile, Pelissier, Millard, Simon, Fakir, Paea, Baitieri, Duport, Fisher, Maria.
