Castleford Tigers' Jacob Miller in consistency vow for Salford Red Devils clash after Leeds Rhinos win
and live on Freeview channel 276
Tigers, who play host to Salford Red Devils on Friday, have beaten Rhinos twice this term, including a 26-24 Magic Weekend success last Saturday.
But Miller insisted: “I can’t put that down to anything in particular, I think the last few weeks especially, we’ve taken a lot of accountability between the group and we’ve worked probably harder than any other time.

The victory in Newcastle ended a six-match losing run and Miller added: “Consistency is key, it’s only one win and we aren’t getting too far ahead of ourselves.
“We know the start of this year has not been good enough and hopefully now we can get some consistency within the group.”
Tigers are without Alex Mellor (head injury), Elliot Wallis (pectoral muscle) and Liam Watts (suspended) from last week’s team.
