That's a very good draw, some very tight games right across the board a few potential banana skins.

Where are the French teams? Are they all out already, or do we not subject them to playing the lower league riff raff?

Who cares about French teams, not me.....Maybe they are in the FRENCH cup, you know, takes place in FRANCE. (obviously Matalan Dragons are in OUR comp later on)

The French clubs (with the exception of Catalan Dragons) withdrew from last year's Challenge Cup and other than the aforementioned Dragons who enter in Round 6 with the rest of last year's SL top 8 no French teams entered the cup this year. I think the French clubs were unhappy with not being allowed to play cup ties at home.

Normanton vs Batley could be a cracker, might pop down to that.

this draw has really 'captured the imagination' of the Super League Terrace ! Bless, you SL fans are more interested in the career of a Ref (Tim Roby)

















pathetic

Lets home no clubs use deal reg. see good cup ties with players from there own clubs for a change, good luck Crusaders

The Challenge cup only get's started when the Super League teams enter. This isn't the FA cup, no team outside SL has even a remote chance of reaching Wembley.

So no, most of us don't care

Yeah, you thrashed 'championship' Leigh in last season's Q/F

Do you progress to a higher round the more points you win by? No, thought not.

but they didnt lose which i think was his point
