Castleford and Hull FC welcome back players ahead of Saturday’s clash

Joe Wardle is set to make his long-awaited Castleford debut after being named in the 19-man squad to face Hull FC.

The Scotland international has yet to feature for the Tigers since his move from Newcastle Knights, with the 26-year-old dealing with a knee injury.

But he has come into Daryl Powell’s 19-man squad, replacing Matt Cook in what is Castleford’s only change. Greg Eden remains in the squad despite missing out last week.

The pair had missed the club’s opening Super League fixtures, but could feature on Saturday alongside Jordan Lane, the youngster who has been given the nod by Lee Radford after impressing Down Under.

Danny Houghton, Scott Taylor and Mark Minichiello remain absent.
