Brad Martin has been provisionally named in the 21-man squad after signing with Castleford during the off-season as one of the club’s Reserves players. The young forward came through the ranks at Leeds Rhinos and has been training full time with the First Team during pre-season. He has now been registered with squad number #31 ahead of this match.
