ST GEORGE Illawarra have become the third team from the NRL to accept an invitation to play in February’s World Club Series in the United Kingdom.
The Dragons, who last participated in the tournament in 2011, join the Rabbitohs and Brisbane Broncos from the NRL.
“The Dragons have a unique place in the history of the sport and Super League fans will look forward to seeing them in the series,” Super League general manager Blake Solly said.
“Having tasted success in the 2011 World Club Challenge, it is fitting the Dragons are the third representative from the NRL.
