Cas are joint favourites to win the cup on skybet and have been backed by Peacock to win it.

Issue is with Challenge cup....It can all come down to the draw... We could end up with away games at say Hull and Wigan. I know we can beat any team but it makes it a hell of a lot harder. Specially in between a busy schedule.

Spot on. Great thing is though is that when the draw is being made all other club's supporters will be praying that they don't pull us out of the bag....!!

No team should be fast tracked, they should all start at the bottom and earn promotion, it's unfair to all the heartland clubs if they don't. London and Catalans took the place of established clubs that strived for the best.
