    What fantastic games of Rugby league football....the Leeds/Saints game was absolutely amazing, huge levels of skill, commitment and passion..genuinely a brilliant advertisement for the game...pity there had to be a winner (and pity it wasnt Leeds!) but saints are absolutely amazing...on their recent performances, I'd have to say they're on course for the double...

    Also well done to Salford, for beating Hull today, hope this marks their arrival at SL level rugby League....

    Amazed but delighted with Salfords win yesterday, hopefully we will get Batley or similar at the Willows in the next round : )

    Great games yesterday on BBC2, however McNamara was gutted after Bradfords defeat, not surprised!

    Oh dear, he's just had the dreaded 'vote of confidence' from the board....shepherd's crook time imminent methinks...

    Aye - not a chance of the game being shown on BBC though, will be comfortable enough for Salford even with that slope at Mount Pleasant!!!

    Time to punt Warrington to win the cup me thinks....

    LOL, yeah the big tactical decision, better to play up it in the first or second....?

    anyhoo, some interesting ties, but Wire to win? hmmm...not so sure. Can't see anyone stopping the Saints this year...still you'll get good odds!
