MATCH SUMMARY

Chev Walker ran in three of Leeds' 11 tries, all converted by Kevin Sinfield, as Castleford were crushed in a game postponed from Friday night.

The first of Rob Burrow's brace opened the scoring before Walker sprinted the length of the pitch and debutante Ian Kirke also touched down.

Burrow and Walker scored again before the break, with Danny McGuire, Ryan Bailey and Ali Lauitiiti scoring later.

Tom Haughey and Ryan McGoldrick both crossed for the visitors.


  • Leeds coach Tony Smith:

    "After the game was postponed on Friday night I wouldn't say that the players were frustrated, they were just like caged tigers ready to go.

    "I thought they did pretty well and they kept their discipline in all sorts of ways.

    "We encourage the players to throw the ball around and try some stuff and I was pleased to allow them to do that."

  • Castleford coach Terry Matterson:

    "It was men against boys. We had them 12-8 at one point, then they had eight out of 10 sets. We gave away lots of penalties which didn't help.

    "I am not going to come in and complain about the referee after that. We have got to help ourselves before the referee can help us.

    "We had a very young side out there but we need some things to go our way."
