Castleford Tigers could be without Niall Evalds for two months, according to boss Lee Radford.

Evalds was take off the field in Castleford’s win over Leeds Rhinos, and it has now been confirmed that he will be out for a consistent chunk of the season.

It means likely that James Clare will once more deputise at fullback with Ryan Hampshire still out.

However, Hampshire isn’t going to be too far away – and he will take the number 1 spot when he returns.
