Paul Gallen has turned his attention to Cronulla’s clash with the Sydney Roosters following an injury setback that prevented the Sharks and NSW captain from making his long-awaited return to the NRL last weekend.

Gallen’s hip injury stopped him from participating in the State of Origin series-opening loss to Queensland last week.

Gallen is considered almost a guarantee for Sunday’s match against the Roosters, along with Origin II in Melbourne on June 17th.

The Sharks face the Roosters at 6pm Sunday.
