Castleford sign Hull FC prop Liam Higgins
Thu August 31, 2006
by Matthew O'Neill
Castleford have signed Hull FC prop forward Liam Higgins on a two-year deal for the 2007 and 2008 seasons.

Higgins is a product of the Hull FC Academy side and has just made five Super League appearances as a replacement this season.

The 23-year-old was out of action for several weeks after suffering from mumps.

Higgins said, "This will be a new challenge for me. I have missed a good chunk of this season with illness but that is fully behind me and I'm looking to kick on next year with the Tigers."

Meanwhile, in team news, Castleford have named their 20-man squad for Saturdays big match with Harlequins, and welcome back Danny Sculthorpe and Richard Fletcher who missed our last match with shoulder problems, and Luke Dyer who has been missing for the last 3 Tigers outings.

Only Ben Roarty, who has a leg injury, and long-term casualty Waine Pryce didn't come into the reckoning when coach Terry Matterson selected his squad. The trio returning replace youngsters Jason Payne, Michael Knowles and Grant Edwards who were in the original 20 for the Tigers last match against Bradford.

The 20-man squad is - Michael Platt, Michael Shenton, Luke Dyer, Paul Handforth, Andy Kain, Danny Sculthorpe, Andrew Henderson, Danny Nutley, Deon Bird, Craig Huby, Richard Fletcher, Gray Viane, Richard Fa'aoso, Willie Manu, Ryan McGoldrick, Danny Ward, Brad Davis, Peter Lupton, Adam Fletcher, Danny Brough.
