Will be great for the young lads to have support like that up there. Well done to all involved

Well Done once more to The Under 19's, who seem to have built up a great team spirit & stand together.

The view from the Yorkshire side?

" Castleford Tigers Under 19’s Academy were defeated 32-12 on Saturday afternoon, when they couldn’t claw back a strong first half lead, against visitors London Broncos at the Wish Communications Stadium.

Richard Tunningley’s men a were staved off possession for much of the opening quarter, with harsh penalties gifting the Broncos attack good field position, which they quickly capitalised on to establish a 16-0 lead.

Nathan Darby (pictured) laid the platform with a drive through the middle, and lively hooker Tom Holmes asked questions of the London defensive line, before Ben Reynolds split the back line with a slick pass to Lewis Farr on an angled run to go crashing over. Reynolds added the conversion.

Another try from the visiting attack saw them lead at the break 20-6.

The Tigers pinned the Broncos deep with their early start to the second half but couldn’t break through and were tackled at the line. The London attack had other ideas and broke through the middle before finding rewards down the right hand side to score.

An arm wrestle followed for much of the second half, with spilled possession and fragmented play in strong heat, stopping the momentum of the game, with no more points scored until the final ten minutes.

Farr almost crossed but was held up at the line, winger Jamie Graves tried in vain to cross but the Tigers couldn't execute the final play to get back in the game.

A penalty for interference at the play-the-ball against the Tigers, piggy-backed the Broncos deep into the home sides half, and a short pass sent their centre through to score another try.

Returning up-field, the London half backs opted to run the ball on the last tackle and reaped rewards out wide for their option scoring again.

The Tigers stuck to the task and found themselves in possession deep in the Broncos ten metres with the last play of the game when they forced an error with the visiting attack spilling the ball. Jordan Gill was on the end of the play and the Tigers crossed again in the right hand corner.

Reynolds added the difficult conversion, but it wasn’t enough for the Tigers with them going down 32-12. " Castleford RFLC Website

Sounds like a strong lineup with Little, Wicks and Woodburn-Hall back after playing SL last weekend.

Suitably vague from Cas.

No mention of a hat trick from Iliess Macani

Yes sorry about that. I lost track of who scored what. I was too busy listening to the Cas support moaning about the ref.
