Singleton: KR are in a great place and will be hard to stop

CASTLEFORD'S Brad Singleton knows all about Wigan's champion quality - so he's wary of what's to come tonight.

The Ireland prop won a Challenge Cup, League Leaders' Shield and reached a Grand Final during his three years with the club.

He left to join Salford in 2023 as part of a swap deal with Tyler Dupree but has played alongside plenty of Matt Peet's squad.

The reigning champions were beaten at Wakefield last Friday to offer hope Castleford, who hope to hand a debut to new Australian forward Josh Stimson, could create their own shock.

But Singleton, 32, warned:

"Wigan will come here with all the threats they have. They're similar to when I was there with the Jai [Field] and Bev [French] axis, Harry Smith's kicking game and they've always had a big strong pack.
