Speaking ahead of our Round 9 clash on Friday, Castleford Tigers coach Craig Lingard says "There is a great opportunity in this next game for us to build some momentum, but we don’t want to look too far ahead- our focus is on Friday. “I thought last week that we were a lot more competitive in individual areas throughout the game. The challenge for us this game and all season is that we need to do this for longer and if we do that for the full 80 minutes, we should be alright but if we’re off in any part of the game against London, they are good enough to get the win”.
