Castleford v Warrington
Cheyse Blair could make his Castleford debut on Friday in the club’s clash with Warrington.
The centre linked up with his new team-mates on Wednesday and has been named in the Tigers’ 19-man squad to face the Wolves.
He’s replaced James Clare in the only change to the squad, with the winger ruled out through injury.
Warrington will be without Ben Murdoch-Masila and Tom Lineham for their trip to West Yorkshire. Lineham has a knee injury although the reason for Murdoch-Masila’s absence is uncertain. They’re replaced by Jason Clark and Ryan Atkins.

Meanwhile, Tyler Randell is set to return to action in their visit to the John Smith’s Stadium.
