Castleford triumph over struggling Saints

Castleford Tigers got back to winning ways after a 28-14 win over a Saints side that has suffered back-to-back league defeats for the first time since 2017.

Two first half tries from Derrell Olpherts and another effort from Peter Mata’utia had Castleford in control at half time.

Saints responded through Tommy Makinson, but their momentum was halted by yellow cards for Matty Lees and Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook. Both were for contact to the head.
