France international Remi Casty has been re-appointed as captain of Catalans Dragons for the new Super League season.
The 32-year-old long-serving prop first led his club in 2012 and 2013 and was re-appointed to the role following his return from a brief spell with Sydney Roosters in 2015.
Dragons head coach Steve McNamara said: "Whilst we have many experienced players and leaders within our team, Remi is the logical choice.
"His work within our organisation, both on and off the field, whilst I have been here has been exemplary."
Casty, who is fit for the start of the new Super League season this weekend after missing the 2017 World Cup through injury, said: "I'm once again really proud to be the captain of this team.
"It's an important role to me and it's a huge honour to represent the club. The quality of this team, both on and off the field, makes my job easier."
