Warrington Wolves v Castleford Tigers - squads named

Forwards Adam Milner and Alex Foster are set to return for Castleford Tigers away to Warrington Wolves on Thursday.

The pair have both been included in coach Daryl Powell’s 19-man squad for the third versus first Betfred Super League showdown.

Foster has missed two games due to a groin injury and Milner sat out last Friday’s win over Hull KR because of damage to a knee.

Tigers prop Grant Millington is due to appear before the Rugby Footbnall League’s disciplinary committee on Tuesday afternoon.

He was handed a two-game penalty notice after being sin-binned for punching against Hull KR and is not included in Tigers’ initial squad, but could be added if the match review panel’s verdict is overturned.

The case will be heard by judge Rodney Grant and former players Danny Sculthorpe and Stuart Fielden.
