St Helens Defeats Castleford Tigers 36-12 Despite Red Card

St Helens achieved a 36-12 victory against Castleford Tigers, bolstering their chances for the Super League play-offs, even after captain Jackson Hastings received a red card.

Hastings was sent off for punching Tyler Dupree, leading to a tense moment as the match concluded with St Helens down to 10 players. The team scored six tries, with contributions from Jack Welsby, Shane Wright, Jacob Douglas, Tom Humphreys, Harry Robertson, and Nene Macdonald.

Castleford managed to score two tries through Louis Senior and Phoenix Laulu-Togaga'e, but their defeat followed the announcement of head coach Ryan Carr's departure for personal reasons. St Helens now needs to win their remaining three matches to secure a playoff spot.
