Collis returns as Agar names 19-man Wakefield Wildcats squad for derby clash

WAKEFIELD Trinity Wildcats head coach Richard Agar has named his 19-man squad charged with bagging the bragging rights against derby foes Castleford Tigers this Friday (kick-off 7.30pm).

Centre Dean Collis has returned after missing the weekend defeat at London Broncos with a hamstring strain, taking the place of Paul Johnson. Loan recruit Paul Sykes is set to get his first run-out at the Rapid Solicitors Stadium in the red, white and blue.

For Castleford, head coach Ian Millward has made two changes to his 19-man squad with Adam Milner and Jordan Thompson returning in place of James Grehan and Ryan Hudson.
