EARLIER on today, Castleford Tigers head coach Lee Radford named his 21-man squad for the clash with Hull FC on Sunday at the MKM Stadium.
However, one of those names absent from the squad was Daniel Smith, who has carved out a reputation for himself as one of Castleford’s most talented forwards.
Instead, Smith has been named in the Halifax Panthers’ 21-man squad for this weekend’s fixture against the London Broncos.
