We are due a trip to Wembley! Who would you like us to draw? Fev away would be my choice, proper old school rugby ground and a team we don't play often. Having said that, I'm happy if we avoid Cas, Leeds and Hull FC

The worst team left - at home!

We shouldn't really fear anyone, I do think that the challenge cup is high on wigans agenda this year though.

Swinton will do for me. What an unbelievable win for them today and nice to see a couple of ex Wigan lads involved. They've been vital in helping lads like Forsyth and Davies get a first team grounding and it would be a good occasion.

I'd like Huddersfield away, then Leigh at home.... oh, erm hang on a minute

Dewsbury on a Friday night

Id take Saints as well

Catalans away. If it's on tele you won't have to bother going to it. Oh maybe it's included in season ticket price then you'll have to go. Oh what a dilemma

Stick to the topic please, we are talking the challenge cup, you know the one you won in the pre decimal era.

Yes, for all the reasons you have alluded to.

Barrow away. Not been to Cumbria for a while and its a good day up there

Seconded

it was awful when we went up in 2009, which Barrow did you go to?

Swinton. Cracking draw when you consider the last three balls were us, Wire & Widnes!

Presumably this is getting switched to the DW?

More likely it'll be played at Heywood road Sale, It's Around 4800 capacity . Also Even worse Parking than the AJ Bell. There isn't any.
Get the Metrolink to Brooklands. Five minutes walk.

they'd be daft not to ask, no? capacity at theirs is less than 4k. even with extra costs at ours, if 6-8k turn up it could be a good earner. telly will probably go for the cas/stainers, wire/vikings or the salford/kr games

Who's job was it to shake the balls?

He wants sacking! Whoever picked ours did a good job mind.

Joynt and Senior... You complain to them if you want ..

Where did they do the draw?

I've been watching BBC News for the past hour, seeing nothing but Drumpf's first 100 days, North Korea and the French Presidential elections.

I hope not, a 6/7k crowd at the DW is horrible.

Swinton have already said the games at Heywood Road. The capacity is 3,300 according to Bilko on Facebook so we won't be getting many tickets.

It's a great draw for both clubs.

Their highest crowd this season is just over 1,000 for the visits of Bradford & HKR. Crowds normally in the region of 500 - I would imagine there'd be 1500-2000 tickets available for Wiganers if required, which should be more than enough.

Depending how we come out of the Salford game we could give O'Loughlin and Williams the week off to get over their Oz trip.
