Really? To think that is to ignore the actual performances in those matches, I don’t think for instance Saints would lose any sleep should they draw us.

Be nice to get the winner of Catalan/Wakey, Leigh/Huddersfield or Widnes/Salford which means we'll get Hull, Saints or Wigan

We will get someone at least. To be in the last 8 is the main thing. Whoever we get we could beat in a one off game, we just don’t want Saints.

Anyone else should have us worried.

Just a side comment, does anyone believe the old aerate that “Our name is on the cup” after last night?

Folk saying we don’t want saints.
They haven’t beat Leeds yet.
Leeds will give them a rate game.
This one will be very close.
In fairness I can’t call it.

Leeds have 18 start with the bookies OCL. Do they know something you don’t?

You should be lumping on Leeds if you think as you do.

Saints won’t lose to Leeds.

Go with your gut feeling OCL and stick a ton on Leeds.

How often do you get a gut feeling that comes off? Quite often I would say.

Not sure. Not aware if that's been decided yet.

Let's put it this way - after the display v Wire & the fightback last night, none of the other 7 would choose us if they had that option.

We've done Saints in the cup in recent seasons & are well overdue a win against them away from our own backyard.

Just seen Leeds team.
Money on saints.

I still think Leeds will give them a game, maybe for 40 mins.

This is why the bookies gave Leeds 18. They don’t often get it wrong.

True.
I thought the Leeds team would be stronger.
I didn’t know Gale weren’t playing.

Typical Loiners - wasn't even named in the squad yesterday.

Can't say who told me - but he's never let me down with in the know info before - Graham Eccles has a back strain after getting the coal in at home on Tuesday. Coach not happy.
