Luke Thompson has stressed the importance of Wigan’s “intent” and “attitude” in Friday night’s clash with Castleford Tigers.

The Warriors return to Betfred Super League action with a third visit of the season to the Mend-A-Hose Jungle less than a week after beating Warrington Wolves in the Betfred Challenge Cup final at Wembley Stadium.

Reflecting on the Challenge Cup win as well as the homecoming celebrations with the supporters, Thompson said: “It was a great weekend, although I haven’t had a chance to sit down and reflect on it yet – that’s something for the next few. weeks.”

He added: “It was unreal to share all the celebrations with the fans at Wembley and then again at home last Sunday. It was a great turnout and I hope everyone enjoyed the weekend.”

The Warriors have turned their attention to Friday night’s Betfred Super League game against Castleford Tigers and at the Round 14 fixture, Thompson said: “It’s good to be back in the training paddock. The biggest challenge this week will be getting the mental part right and making sure we’re ready to go again with the right attitude.”

On facing Castleford Tigers, Thompson said: “We know the threats that Castleford present and that playing in their place is always a challenge. Everyone can see that he has improved as the season has gone on, so we have to make sure we start with the right intensity and show that we are ready for the occasion.”

Match and travel tickets for Friday night’s match at Castleford Tigers remain available to purchase from The Brick Community Stadium and online HERE along with a series of future matches at home.
