    The latest on the injury front and Wakefield's Scott Anderson is not likely to return now that medics have given him a once over.

    "It just shows that when a team stick to basic things, simple things can work. The kick was alright, but they had challengers for the first time in this half.

    "Things can happen. You just wish that they could have done that right from the start."

    There is a collision and Castleford's Ashley Gibson goes down as he attempts to take a high kick.

    Daniel Smith picks up the scraps and is through for Wakefield's second try.

    Brilliant foresight from Tom Johnstone as he takes an intercept and races more than 75 metres to hit back for Wakefield.

    "It's a tough situation Wakefield are in. It's more worrying as a coach to have players under-working, but you can also over-work. Paul McShane thinks it's going out wide and works really hard to help his defenders, but Michael Shenton steps on the inside and goes through the middle."

    If new boss Brian Smith is watching, he must be thinking that he has his work cut out for him if he is to save Wakefield from finishing rock bottom of Super League this season.

    Michael Shenton makes the break straight through the guts of Wakefield's feeble resistance and looks right where Jordan Tansey collects a pass and strolls it over.

    Reports coming through and seems both Castleford's Scott Moore and Wakefield's Scott Anderson could return to the field today despite going off after a bloody clash early on.

    From the resulting scrum Castleford make light work of Wakefield's resistance.

    Denny Solomona gets hold of a bit of a looped pass, but he is too elusive to be slowed down and goes in for a second time.

    Richard Owen gifts Castleford attacking possession in dangerous territory with a poor knock-on. He had time and the bounce should not have bamboozled him like it did.

    That conversion from Luke Gale from the touchline sees the stand-off bring up 1,000 career points.

    Flowing play for Castleford and the final ball is dished out to Denny Solomona, who contorts his body just right to touch down before going into touch.

    Horrendous head clash here between Castleford's Scott Moore and Wakefield's Scott Anderson.

    Both players leave the field bloodied to get treatment.

  14. Kick-offpublished at 17:32 British Summer Time 31 May 2015

    A tinge of sadness comes with kick-off for game six of Magic Weekend. It's our last one, after all.

  15. Postpublished at 17:30 British Summer Time 31 May 2015

    Well that is one way to get your fans pumped up for a game, name a coach of the quality of Brian Smith as new boss just before taking the field.

    Playmaker Ben Roberts misses out for Castleford Tigers today with good reason as his wife is in labour with their second child.

  17. Wakefield appoint Smithpublished at 17:26 British Summer Time 31 May 2015

    Wakefield chairman Michael Carter told Sky Sports: "He is a worldwide name in rugby league and he comes with the highest pedigree, and it is a real coup for a club like Wakefield to attract someone of his ilk.

    "He sent a text message through our former coach James Webster, who passed that on to me. I had a couple of chats with Brian over the phone and he spoke well about what he wanted to achieve.

    "We had a really high calibre of candidates but having spoken to Brian it was an easy decision to make."

  20. Brian Smith appointed Wakefield coachpublished at 17:18 British Summer Time 31 May 2015

    Former Sydney Roosters coach Brian Smith has been named coach of Wakefield Trinity Wildcats until the end of the season.

    The Wildcats are bottom of Super League after 15 games, so the hugely experienced Australian's arrival will be vital.

    Smith is the brother of Warrington Wolves coach Tony Smith. He was also named NRL coach of the year in 2010.
