St George Illawarra forward Jack de Belin will stand trial on a number of sexual assault charges in March of next year.

De Belin will front court on March 2, 2020, with the trial set to last around two weeks.

The Origin forward is pleading not guilty to four separate charges of aggravated sexual assault in company, as well as one charge of aggravated sexual assault in company causing actual bodily harm.

De Belin will face the same charges as Callan Sinclair, who allegedly joined him on the night.

The 28-year-old hasn't played since March after being stood down due to the NRL's "no fault stand-down" rule.
