How many of these ties will wind up been reversed as the Amateur side can't find somewhere to host it?

Siddal v Swinton -Possibly at The Shay, though Halifax are at Home too so could depend on what Football is due to be played.

York City Knights v Wigan St Patricks

Featherstone Rovers v The Army

Queens v Doncaster - Perhaps at headingley? Cost could be prohibitive though

Pilkington Recs v Batley - Knowsley Road?

Barrow v Blackpool

Gateshead v Whitehaven

Workington v Lezignan

Leigh Centurions v Lokomotiv Moscow

Oldham v Sharlston

Sheffield Eagles v Toulouse

Leeds Met Carnegie v Rochdale Hornets - What are the Uni Facilities like? Rochdale won't bring more than a few Hundred.

Widnes Vikings v Saddleworth

Wath Brow Hornets v London Skolars - Possibly at The Recre? or even Wath Brow's place as, no disrespect, Skolars won't fill a coach.

Keighley v Pia

Kells v Hunslet= Played Halifax at The Recre a few years ago. but Wath Brow may also want to play there. maybe one of the games switch to Saturday?

Halifax v Loughborough University

Dewsbury v Carcassonne

When are the fixtures?

I have never been to a cup game that didn't involve a Superleague side and I am really tempted to go and watch Featherstone v the Army.

The Army RL team get a lot of coverage in Soldier magazine.

6th/7th March

Looking for an upset ? Siddal versus Swinton, perhaps, on the evidence of the Lions' woeful effort at Dewsbury last Sunday.

Gateshead always seem to get to face another NL side

All amateur teams get is £2,000 for entering the comp and
another £1,000 if they lose the 3rd round game.
The pro teams get the gate money,(whether home or away),as well as
£9,000 for entering the comp and £3,000 if they lose.
