Saints will face Hull KR at Murrayfield on the weekend of May 1 and 2 as part of the Magic Weekend.

(Other Magic Fixtures: Hull v Harlequins, Bradford v Crusaders, Warrington v Salford, Leeds v Wakefield, Wigan v Huddersfield, Castleford v Catalans)



Our match and Wigan V Huddersfield are the only "eye-catchers"

Our game, the Wigan game and possibly the Cas game are the only competitive ones. What a stupid idea.

They should make it a 9s tournament and invite some fun teams like Goroka Gators and Florida Flo Riders and the Jamaican Jamsters. Make it more fun, have pole dancers and free cake.

I can almost imagine Jammer's pre-trip press rant.

Happy days, I am out the country for this one, should save me a few sovs.

pointless. Doubt I'll be bothering to go.

I think it should be a 7's or 9's round-robin weekend something totally seperate from SL with a Trophy for the winning side...

Go on, go ahead mock my idea

Or stick with the original format

Leeds Bradford
Catalan Harlequins
Wakefield Castleford
Saints Wigan
Warrington Huddersfield
Crusaders Salford
Hull FC Hull KR

i wont be going.

no real big games to hang the marketing and publicity on...what a disappointment.

We are dragging the barrell if Saints v HKR and Wigan v Huddersfield are classed as eye catchers!

And, yes I do know HKR beat us twice last season.

I wasn't going this season anyway but if I was in doubt nothing in that fixture list would tempt me to go!

I can't believe how poor that line up is. This event will die a death this year. With people already skint and no big match ups on view I think the attendance will be dire.

leeds wakey is alway a cracker

Morbid ba5tards.

See you all down Rose Street to watch the game on SKY.

There won't be room for you at Murrayfield with 67,500 HKR fans will there.

That record's getting stuck mate, think you should swap the limited edition platinum CD to another one.

Magic weekend should be the last 16 of the challenge cup.

If the top 7 along with the winners on the championship are given a bye to this stage you can make the draw now with 8 qualifier balls. So we know half the teams that are there.

Leeds
St Helens
Huddersfield
Hull KR
Wakefield
Wigan
Castleford
Barrow

All games are competitive, it drops a game from the season for the sl teams, potential for terrestrial broadcast, a realsitic showpiece for NL clubs to get to etc etc.

Ticks all the boxes for me.

Shocking draw. Even I am tempted to sack it off.
