I'd have to say Leeds/Crusaders & Halifax/Bradford for the TV games or maybe even Fev/Lezignan - How amazing that the SL clubs all got drawn against lower division clubs (Leeds/Crusaders excepted), - makes ya wonder if there is something on the balls - Not suggesting the RFL would do anything like that - they're far too honest!

It seems a bit ropey to me too. There have been some high profile exits at round 4 in recent years becuse of the draw. What heightens suspicion for me is that the crowds have also been poor for round 4; only 5 SL clubs have been drawn at home and guess which ones they are; the five best supported teams.....very convenient mmmmmm?

P.S. Notice that Widnes & St's were not both drawn at 'home', Crusaders avoid having a particularly embarrassing home crowd against a lower division side and both French teams drawn away.

Have you also noticed that the home teams are all in alphabetical order and the SL teams are all in red.


Aaaaargh it's a fix. Everyone at the RFL is a bent as a nine bob note. No-one ever went to the moon it was all recorded at CBS TV studios. The FBI shot JFK. MI5 ousted Harold Wilson. The last government deliberately caused the World Recession. Aliens are alive and well and living in Sagar Street. It's all a conspiracy. Woop woop.

Now can we all get a life.

Lets hope Barrow get to round 5 again this year!

I quite like the Rochdale ground. I think I will be making this trip

Just to show how sad I am, I've run a few draws through the computer and it's amazing how you can find conspiracy at every turn. I wrote a little program to randomly draw the above clubs, ran 15 draws and you can find all sorts of stuff that looks dodgy. If anyone seriously wants a copy of the code or the draws, pm me and I'll e-mail you a file.

Indeed GB, if there's a Leeds v Saints tie it's a fix to have a big TV match for the BBC. If all SL clubs are apart then it's a fix as well.

Nothing like a bit of apophenia to get them all going!

Computers cant do random..

I thought Andy henderson's attempt at converting a try at the end of that game was hilarious, it was the worst conversion attempt I have ever seen. lol

You never saw St John Ellis at the end of the Leigh-Cas match down the lane in 1994.

Speedy reminded me of that one only recently!
