Re: CC QF draw : Mon Apr 30, 2012 7:37 am  

I remember the Nostradamus who posted on here the last 16 fixtures ahead of their announcement a couple of years ago (which apart from one fixture being the wrong way round were spot on, and the odds are pretty long on getting that right by chance). That really was one for the conspiracy theorists.

Perhaps they could do so again at the QF stage this year.

Re: CC QF draw : Mon Apr 30, 2012 8:13 am  

i think it will be

Catalan v Leigh
Saints v Hudds
Leeds v London
Wigan v Wire

those were the days wrote:

Would like to place money that WIGAN get the hardest game though

after a couple of games against lower league opposition, I don't think you could complain about getting a SL club this time around.

FWIW London and Leigh apart, its not going to be an easy draw for anybody.

Leeds will play Leigh it's much easier for them.

It`s not as if Leeds have drawn SL opposition 13 or 14 times in a row though is it? Oh wait a minute!!
Sorry who did you play in the last round?

I wouldnt bet on us Leythers being an "easy" game. We will give 100% and the atmosphere will be electric, expecially if its a proper Derby - Leigh V Wigan

Whatever the draw, if we are to win the CC again I'd rather us win it having beaten Wire, Saints and Leeds like last year than get the easier draws and have clubs start crying about who's had easier games.

Btw if we did get drawn at home could the game not just be played on the friday night whilst latics are playing sunday? been interesting that no one has moaned about the pitch over the last month or so aswell....

That's cos it's in the best condition it's been in for a very long time.

Balls to everyone else. It's like coming top and not being crowned Champions. Tough. They're the rules. Yes, it's nice to win it how Saints did in 2006 or how we did last year, but I wouldn't complain if we got the easier draw every round as long as won the thing.

I want:

Leigh v Wigan
Leeds v London
Wire v Saints
Catalans v Hudds - this would be a great draw with us away at Hudds the week after in the league

Re: CC QF draw : Mon Apr 30, 2012 11:43 am  

I'll go for................


Leeds v Wigan (as per usual)
Leigh v Saints (to be played at Saints for tax reasons)
Wire v Catalan (50% of Wire fans to be Catalan supporters for the day)
Hudds v Pearly Kings (to be played at Odsal at the RL's insistence).
