I reckon the Giants will be too strong for the Tigers to contain.

Cas getting a right thumping! 48 - 6 down, 9 tries conceded and it's not finished yet!

FT 64 - 12
Ouch!

Cas may find themselves rooted to the bottom for the rest of the season.

<div align="center"> </div><div align="center"> Huddersfield coach Jon Sharp on Rod 'Rocket' Jensen's influence:
The air of anticipation every time he touched the ball was similar to Jason Robinson when he carried the ball in his rugby league days. "Every time he touched the ball he created something. It's another string to Rocket's bow.

"We played really good attacking stuff and defended well. Our support play in particular was excellent."

Castleford coach Terry Matterson:
"I was hoping we wouldn't have any of those performances from two years ago but we have now. We've got to deal with it and move on. "I could reel off excuses - I had 17 players to pick from - but we've got to look to the 17 on the field and they're better than that.

"What we served up didn't do justice to the supporters who came in numbers. I thought they were fantastic and I feel for them. We're three games in and we've got to do better."

Huddersfield: Thorman, Elford, Whaturia, Lolesi, Jensen, Brown, Robinson, Mason, Hudson, Skandalis, Crabtree, Snitch, Wild.
Replacements: Gatis, Raleigh, Jackson, Griffin.

Castleford: Dorn, Owen, Dixon, McGoldrick, Wainwright, Thackeray, Lupton, Leafa, Henderson, Huby, Guttenbeil, Haberecht, Westerman.
Replacements: Higgins, Korkidas, Boyle, Fletcher.

Referee: R Silverwood (Dewsbury)

Thunderous defeat. It doesn't bode well for Cas, it really doesn't, I thought they would have had a better start than this. Them and Leeds now with 100% records...
