Teams in bold I expect to go through!

Could be our year...



At least 7 non-SL teams in the next round.

Some cracking games, and I expect ours to be one of the better ones.

Should be a decent crowd down the Shay and certainly a game we can win.

Swinton at home in the next round!

Not the draw I wanted but its at home and one we can win.
Why do we seem to get the team we play in the week or so before in Cups like last year and Celtic Crusaders in the NRC??
Thing is if we lose both games we will be miserable to say the least but if we win both we will be in wonderland!!!

I couldn't think of a better draw, a game at home against a rival team,w hich should be a great encounter and a healthy gate. Coupled with a lot of SL teams drawn together, and big teams at that, I couldn't think of a better draw.

It's about time we had a decent cup run!

Might it be a game BBC will show especially as they have chosen to follow 'Fax's progress through the competition?

think its a gud tie for us, lets go as far as we can, in all comps, lets get through this one then the next one, then get a big tie, more money for the club that way, and more games for us species to watch

Do you realise that we could possibly play Widnes up 6 times this season?

Home & away - Championship
Any future round of NRC
Challenge Cup
Championship semi's
Championship final

6 wins then eh TS?

i wonder what odds u would get on that!

Better than they're offering for the league just now.

My guess for TV games

Leeds v Saints (obv)
Hull KR v Celtic (novelty)

Its a nice thought but I doubt it very much, not with 5 all Superleague games.

Leeds vs St Helens is the most obvious one for a Saturday game to be shown and possibly Catalans vs Bradford, to see a french side go through.
