The Broncos trailed just 16-4 at the break after winger Kieran Dixon got on the scoresheet but after the interval they capitulated, conceding five second-half scores as Castleford ran amok.

Wales winger Rhys Williams claimed a late consolation try for the Broncos but the heavy defeat saw them return to the foot of the Super League table.
