Easiest draw possible for me for this next round. We have a long season to consider so why would you not want the lads to have an easy tie? We play Sheffield the week before and Batley the week after so it would be nice if PR could give some of our regulars a bit if a rest.
It's not about beating the best at this stage because the best aren't in it so that's a silly statement to make.

| Normally say anyone at home but wouldn't mind Hull KR Away this time around.
A great test and chance of a good gate whilst visiting one of our old rivals from years ago in a game that could give us an idea of how we are doing in comparison to a SL club.
Get the free coaches on and the players stay overnight in a hotel near the Humber Bridge and its 1996 all over again  |

I'd prefer anybody at home but failing that, I'd go for Hull KR away aswell, used love our bit of rivalry back in the day but also feel it would be the biggest test available, I've said before that i think we need to remember what its like to lose before we hit these 8's. Hull KR, or FC away would definitely give us a better idea of where we actually are. Not by any means saying I think we need a reality check or anything, it'd just be good to know where we actually are.

As a fax fan I wouldnt mind Bradford at home for a decent crowd and a winnable game. Failing that Leigh (Miners obviously) anywhere.

The old adage is that you have to 'have the luck of the draw' to progress in the cup. Surely that would indicate a home draw against one of the 'lower league' teams remaining? If we do play one of the SL teams, I would rather it be later in the competition, when we have had even longer to 'gel' as a team.

The Watcher would prefer a nice easy home tie against lowly opposition, let's make some easy prize money, we will eventually draw a big SL team if we stay in long enough

Agreed. Hope we get to the quarterfinals before drawing a big name top team at home. Hope we draw Miners as that'd be best for them, but anyone below the top 4 Championship teams. Think if we play as well as we can we can beat anyone in this round though so it doesn't really matter.

Wouldn't mind getting one of the 4 SL clubs. If we are still some way off the standard of the SL clubs we're likely to face in the play offs, better to find out and work on it sooner rather than later.

Theoretically would playing the weakest team possible in every round take the shine off winning the CC? Of course not.
