Former Leeds Rhinos full-back Luke Hooley remains a “big part” of Castleford Tigers’ future, despite a loan move to Featherstone Rovers, coach Craig Lingard says.

Hooley, who joined Tigers from Rhinos in pre-season on a two-year deal, will spend the next fortnight with Castleford’s Betfred Championship neighbours as he regains match fitness. He faces competition for his Super League place from recent signing Tex Hoy, but Lingard insisted: “Luke is here for next year.

“He’s had eight-10 weeks out injured so it’s important his recovery and return to play is right for him and we are happy for him to go back to Wigan to get that recovery and rehabilitation he needs.” The coach wouldn't rule out former Wakefield Trinity man Eseh returning to Tigers at some stage. He added: “Matt Peet said if and when he’s ready to go out on loan to get some game time we’ll have that conversation, but that’ll depend where we are with bodies at that particular time.
