Castleford Tigers' Gareth Widdop adamant he has "nothing to prove" to Warrington Wolves

Castleford's Gareth Widdop insists he doesn’t need to prove anything as he faces former club Warrington on Friday for the first time since his exit.

The ex-England stand-off, 34, left Wolves at the end of last season with Dary Powell undergoing a major squad overhaul. They were wretched last term but have won all five games so far this time around. Castleford finally got up and running against Leeds last week and Widdop said: “I wouldn’t say I’ve anything to prove.

“It’s enjoyable facing your old team-mates and also some of the Aussie lads who’ve come over this season, I spent a lot of time with them in Australia. But I don’t have any regrets. You make decisions in life and things happen for a reason. Things don’t always go to plan.
