Sydney Roosters to train with Catalans ahead of World Club Challenge

Sydney Roosters will prepare for the World Club Challenge against St Helens by having a training session with Catalans in Barcelona.

The NRL champions are having a short training camp in Spain before arriving in England for their World Club Challenge clash against Saints at the Totally Wicked Stadium on Saturday, February 22.

The training session will take place next Tuesday at the Baldiri Aleu Stadium.

The Roosters are the current world champions, having defeated Wigan 20-8 in last year’s showdown at the DW Stadium.

Roosters coach Trent Robinson was head coach of the Dragons in Super League between 2011-12, before he linked up with the Roosters the following year.
