Jake Webster joined Jon Wells after Castleford's defeat to Wigan

Jake Webster joined Jon Wells at the touchscreen to analyse Castleford's defeat to Wigan on Thursday night.

The Tigers' confidence was high following their comprehensive back-to-back wins over Leeds and Warrington and winger Denny Solomona, Super League's leading tryscorer, maintained his prolific form by touching down twice to take his total for the season to 20, but it was not enough to prevent a first defeat in four games.

Tigers centre Webster endured a mixed evening at the Jungle. The New Zealand international was sin-binned after the half-time hooter for dissent but responded with a fantastic 61st-minute try to keep his side in the contest.

Wigan hit back through a Sam Powell try but Solomona set up a tense finish when he crossed in the corner. However, Matty Smith's drop goal with four minutes remaining secured back-to-back victories for the Warriors.
