Castleford Tigers secured their second consecutive victory with a thrilling 34-20 win over London Broncos, thanks to stellar performances from Innes Senior and Alex Mellor.

The Tigers were riding high after their dramatic win against St Helens last week, and they continued their winning streak with a dominant display.

In a game filled with ups and downs, Senior and Mellor stepped up to the plate and delivered two tries each to seal the victory for Castleford.

The Broncos showed glimpses of potential, but their lack of discipline and defensive lapses proved to be their downfall as they find themselves languishing at the bottom of the table.

Castleford wasted no time in asserting their dominance, with Tex Hoy capitalizing on a gaping hole in London's defense to score the opening try.

The Broncos' frustrations boiled over when Rhys Kennedy was sin-binned for dissent, and the Tigers took full advantage of the extra man as Senior crossed the line for another try.

Despite the setback, London did not back down and fought back valiantly.

Mellor showcased his skills with a brilliant individual effort, spotting an opening and sprinting towards the try line to extend Castleford's lead.

In the end, the Tigers' resilience and composure proved to be the difference as they emerged victorious in a hard-fought contest.

With their spirits high and confidence growing, Castleford will be looking to build on this success and continue their winning streak in the Super League.
