Can't even get the numbers right on the graphic.

Absolute shambles!!

Apparently Widnes v Swinton, even though it said Sheffield...

Anyway, we'll be coming to your gaff  in numbers!

Looking forward to it!

should hopefully Get through that tie then what do people want?

A good away tie where there will be a decent attendance so we can share the gate

or do we get more decent money the further (for how long our luck lasts) we get in the cup

Think there’s a bit of myth with there being many pay days in RL.

Cant imagine Wakefield on a Friday night last year made us much money

Good draw for us, we should beat Swinton then just 3 games from Wembley 🙄. I would like another home tie against someone from our division, then a money spinning home game against a SL club (Warrington?)in the quarter finals.

Good draw. Should get a respectable attendance and advance to the next round.

I agree, think for any club in our division, you always either want a tie you can win, if not, at least draw a club that will get a good gate - although these days even up to the quarters and semi, crowds are not great. If we can get the win against Swinton, something like Salford away would be the worst of both worlds.

We've not played you all that often in the intervening years, but not succeeded at your gaff (against Widnes that is) since '87, when Les Holliday slotted over the one-pointer to clinch it for us, so we're more than overdue a win!

I don't think there's any doubt you'll be the favourites, but we'll be heading there hoping to extend our Wembley dream!

Bring it on, and see you in Leggie's!

Spelly.

The year we won the league I believe.

We just couldn’t keep hold of the ball that game if I remember, 20-21 wasn’t it.

We got revenge at your place later in season when we did hit form, sure we hit 50 odd points

 

Good days 👍👍

Interesting fact, our game is the only all championship clash of the round!

I thought Swinton had won here since 1987 ? Mid to late nineties ?
