I want a strong, thriving Saints team.

Not because I have any like for them, but I love Rugby League with a passion.

This sport is the best in the land and desperately needs to grow. Having a floundering Saints team is not good.

most of the teams in the Sl and the second tier can claim to have an honourable history
saints are no more important to the future of RL than Hull, Keighley, Oldham, Bradford, Halifax, Wakefield ....
RL needs more team sof a better standard WHOEVER they are.
not even Wigan can claim to be more important than any other team !

Sheffield away

It's more fun beating Saints when they've got a good side. As for the health of RL we need 10 strong clubs and sides. At the moment we have 3. We need the likes of Saints, Hull, Catalans and Bradford to step up their efforts and for the smaller clubs to decide whether there is any point in the playing in SL and either shape up or ship out. The competition badly needs a strong London club on and off the field and a financially viable and competitive Toulouse. Both I think are more important for the future of the game as a whole than even Wigan and Leeds.

Ha, Well if they are headed there then they had better change all their avatars about the 75-0 scoreline because this lot we have in our current squad would rack up 100 points on the 2005 team.

Karma isn't it?

Rugby League moves in cycles and we are in the good repetition at the moment whilst Stains are flagging.

I agree with that. If the Bronco's had a strong side the BBC and Sky might just take more notice.

I'd like Sheffield at home

But iv got a mad feeling we will draw widnes away.

how about Batley away ?
long shot, but they are 4-0 up vs Giants at HT

Part of me wants us to get a huge tie against Leeds or Wire whilst we're in this form because our form at the start of last year was wasted by the time the big games come round.

If we get one of those two then great but otherwise a championship side away will do.

Wigan v Warrington, Sat 11th May, 17.15 k.o., give me something to do that day.

Just hope we don't get a champion side or any other side than Leeds/Warrington at home.

I'm going for either Widnes or Huddersfield away!

I think we'll get Huddersfield or York away!

Any away game will do me though!

York or Workington away please.

York away please!

What time is the draw?

half 3 today on 5 live

15:30 today.

If you can't listen because of work you can watch a live feed of the draw through thechallengecup.com

York/London away for me.

on now

hull kr away

Hull KR away. That'll do.

Full Draw

Catalans Dragons - York City Knights
Hull FC - Wakefield Wildcats
Workington Town - Widnes Vikings
Hull KR - Wigan Warriors
London Broncos - Bradford Bulls
Warrington Wolves - Salford City Reds
Huddersfield Giants - Leeds Rhinos
Sheffield - Halifax

IMO BBC will televise Hudds vs Leeds

Awful presentation. Two muppets who hadn't a clue and had no interest in the sport. Such a prestigious competition with a rich heritage which they shat on.

As Billy said, Hull KR away the team that beat Saints. They'll be busting a nut to get one over us after that thrashing.
