CASTLEFORD.... 4
WIGAN............. 32
CHAMPIONS Wigan opened with victory - but only after stunned Castleford prop Liam Watts saw red.
Liam Marshall (2), Patrick Mago, Bevan French and debutant Kruise Leeming scored tries as Matty Peet's side began their title defence at rain-lashed Wheldon Road.
But, ahead of Saturday's World Club Challenge showdown with Penrith, it wasn't as comfortable as the scoreline suggested.
Fired-up Tigers led 4-2 when Watts was controversially sent off in the 28th minute.
