Powell expects Hull to be at their best
Castleford coach Daryl Powell

CASTLEFORD coach Daryl Powell does not expect globe-trotting Hull to be at a disadvantage when they meet at the Jungle this afternoon.

The Black and Whites, who were one of only two away teams to win at the Jungle in 2017, arrived back this week from a fortnight’s tour of New South Wales where they played an historic Super League match against Wigan before taking on St George Illawarra in a friendly.

Lee Radford’s men have had just four days to re-acclimatise and overcome jet lag, but Powell believes they will be ready.
