Good draw that - put a good marker down, should win but up against a team that will be full of confidence
Salford v Toronto should be interesting

Coming off the back of a trip to Toulouse on Easter Monday means you guys should win at a canter.

| Happy with that draw. They'll bring a decent following and will have a point to prove. Should be a good game.

| If they show 2 games as they normally do, I'd say it'll be ourselves against KR and Salford v Toronto

I would take that as being more advantageous to you..Increasing intensity levels as taking you out of normal routine. Plus we will be coming off the back of Salford away,Hull at home easter program..

Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.

Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

Checked with RFL. There is NO Sky game in fifth round - the BBC will however stream another match. Up to 11 televised games after fifth

| Well, this is an interesting draw for Leigh. The reason being Jamie Peacock. If there is one man in RL who dislikes Leigh, and makes a poor job at covering it up, it is Jamie. A class player in his day, of that there is no doubt. Very successful and rightly so. As a person he is not so good when it comes to the subject of Leigh RL. This all goes back to the Challenge Cup game at Headingley 2-3 years ago when Leeds Rhinos were nearly on the end of a shock defeat in front of their faithful supporters at the hands of Leigh. Following on from the bust-up on the pitch with Matt Sarsfield he had nothing but negative things to say about Leigh. If I remember rightly he slagged us off by saying that we weren't going to win games by fighting. Forget the fact Jamie that it was 12-12 until the 73rd minute and Leigh having 'bombed' a couple of good opportunities at 12-12.
Nowadays, whenever he is asked to comment on Leigh (See the SL Show after the Wigan game a few weeks ago and his response to Tanya Arnold's question, "and what about Leigh?"icon_wink.gif he simply deflects the question and carries on talking about Wigan, something he had been doing for the previous minute of highlights.
The fact that we helped to send HKR into the Championship last year will all add to his dislike.
There is no doubt in my mind that he will relish this tie and want to win this game more than ever. Not just because it's the Challenge Cup or because he wants to see what level HKR are at currently. It will be because it's Leigh. I hope we are fired up for this tie because we will need to be.

Yup, he's defo not a Leigh fan. Also given that Leigh went vertical as he and Hull KR exceptionally bombed last year.

Its amazing how you feel the need to come on another teams board to post negatively about a team who are in a different division. You seem to be a bit obsessed with Hull KR
Back on Topic. I'm hoping we run you close but can't see past an easy win for Leigh.

| Peacock may not be a Leigh fan, I have never really cared much for Hull KR either.
It's a tricky tie and we will need to be on top of our game as we were against St.Helens, Warrington and Huddersfield recently.
They (like Leigh when also in the championship) have a great following and will sure add to the atmosphere and occasion. We should win, but they will be more than up for it. An intriguing game in prospect.
