CASTLEFORD Tigers' game against Leeds Rhinos is OFF tomorrow night - but Hull FC will step in to face Leeds instead.

The change has been made following the return of three positive Covid-19 tests in the Castleford camp, with a further six players being stood down as part of track and trace protocols.

Tigers coach Daryl Powell had said earlier today that his club was facing an "impossible task" to get the game on as they were down to 14 fit players.
