Not my preferred choice but should make for an interesting game. Quite an interesting round to be honest, several good games.

I'd would think Hock would be available for selection, he came to us as a free agent.

Excellent draw,cant wait to see Hock in that one..He's not cup tied so he plays if available. I would have thought alot of frustration within the 4 superleagues clubs with the way the draw has gone as none of them will be able to field a weakened side.Thats an extra game to their calendar they all could have done without.

I really cant see it being a better attendance for the away fans either..Being they are struggling with attendance at home...

Maybe you`re just a Pseudo Leyther newbie?

Speaking of clowns how are you doing Troll... You do like the Leyth Twitter account Limp Dick..

I dont even follow the Leigh Twitter account dumbass

I am genuine, pal. I'm just not familiar with these particular forums...

And I can see now that a lot of people tend to post anywhere. Though I won't be. I have little interest in what's happening at other clubs.

A couple of posts from the Salford board, I do hope we can refer John & Mike back to their posts once we beat them.

Clouds with "Silver Linings"

They sound concerned to me....

Looks like your game might be on Sky after all.

If that's the case, I hope the clubs get some money for the televised game, as it will affect the crowd on.

Apologies for being confident that the team (if we beat Widnes on Thursday) that are 4th in Super League will beat a team playing in a division below against much inferior standard to us on a weekly basis.

I'm not doubting Leigh aren't doing really well this season and will no doubt give us a really good game as you did Leeds last season, but I still believe we will comfortably win as we should be if we have any serious desires about winning the competition this season (which according to our owner we do!).

When was the last time Leigh beat us in a competitive game, the infamous Hilton Park Challenge Cup game?

Could Koukash' comments not be with regards to the RFL investigation into Gareth Hock's homophobic comments on Twitter? If found guilty, which having seen the tweets seems very likely he's probably due another 4/5 game ban (in line with Zak Hardakers punishment for homophobic abuse).

Doc said 'wont play' and not 'may not play'.

Which suggests to me he knows something the rest of us don't, ie additional ban coming Hocks way?

Not really. Just suggesting that he's a stirrer.

First I have heard of Hock facing an additional ban?

So you are saying Gareth Hock could potentially be banned for 11/12 games and not the 6 games we are led to believe?

Therefore when were these supposed comments alleged to have been made that could land him in further trouble?

Salford released Hock,they didn't have to,bearing in mind they probably thought he would sign for another super League team,they put a clause in that he couldn't play against them this season.
It seems the most logical answer.

This is exactly what I am saying. It has been confirmed by the RFL that they were investigating homophobic comments which were made by Gareth Hock on his personal Twitter account. They were made following the Salford v St Helens game earlier this year.

The good Doctor will very soon realise (that's if He hasn't already that He is wasting his cash and will depart post haste to Oz ,to moan to his hearts content over there

Responding to an insult with an insult, if he gets banned for that it will show that the RFL is run by wimps.

On Boots n All, Eddie just confirmed its on the tele!

I think it's the homophobic reference to a 'faggot' that caused the issue. If it was just simply a case of calling him a pr*ck, I'm sure it wouldn't have even been discussed.

Either way, as a professional rugby league player it's an unacceptable comment to make and he should know better, he's 31 now not 21.

John Gilbert Reds ....Your very cocky ,if i was you I'd keep my trap shut till after this tie .You may well get a wake up call .

Well Ladbrokes have you at 1/3 favourites against Widnes 5/2...

I doubt we will see the same odds when you visit us..5/2 on Widnes I'll be taking that..
