Castleford Tigers moved top of the infant Super League table with an impressive 28-8 victory at Hull KR, which saw Daryl Powell earn a 300th win of his coaching career.

Rovers started well and struck first at Craven Park when Ben Crooks scored his seventh try of the season after meeting Joe Keyes' cross-field kick.

The Tigers were wasteful early doors until Michael Shenton finished after Paul McShane made the initial break.

Ryan Brierley kicked a two-pointer to pull Hull back in front, but his sin-binning for a cynical and illegal block on Grant Millington preceded Cas scoring 22 unanswered points.

Danny Richardson first slotted the resulting penalty and then scored his first try for the Tigers, and James Clare finished acrobatically in the corner before Mike McKeeken finished the comeback.

The Tigers consequently top the table having played five matches, while Rovers are second bottom having won just once.
