Wakefield Trinity delivered a dominant performance to defeat Castleford Tigers 34-0 in a one-sided Betfred Super League derby at the OneBore Stadium. The visitors showcased clinical finishing and blistering pace, with Jake Trueman scoring twice and Corey Hall, Tyson Smoothy, Oliver Pratt (2), and Cam Scott also crossing the line. Max Jowitt added three conversions to complete the scoring.

Castleford, now bottom of the table with just four points, were completely outclassed and failed to register a single point. The Tigers had a try disallowed when Jason Qareqare was ruled to have stepped out of bounds before grounding the ball. Despite brief moments of pressure, including a near-score by Sam Hall, Castleford's attack was toothless against a resolute Wakefield defense. The Adam Watene Trophy remained with the visitors as they extended their winning run to five matches across all competitions.

This comprehensive victory keeps fourth-placed Wakefield level on 10 points with Warrington, Leeds, Wigan, and St Helens at the top of the table. For Castleford, the defeat deepens their struggles at the foot of the standings, highlighting the urgent need for improvement. Wakefield's blend of experience and emerging talent, exemplified by debutant Tray Lolesio's impact, underscores their growing momentum in the league.
