They were'nt, but cheekydiddles is still right.!!

Predictions

Warrington v Bradford - 4.5k
Catalan v Sheffield - 4k
Salford v Leeds - 3.5k
Leigh v Halifax - 1.4k
Oldham v St Helens - 1.9k
Fev v Wigan - 4k
Shuddersfield v Swinton - 3k
Batley v London - 892 (would be 889 but I'm including 3 freeloaders on freebies).

There is no draw for the Final.

Nobody mentioned anything about a draw, he just said we'd had 10 SL on the trot.

Is that not correct?

i went to the league match,

not sure about this i was pretty unimpressed with the car parking, will wait and to see the prices

Shame the Champions weren't rewarded with a game against a big club after their win over Cas

Its probably the toughest of the games of any of the top 6

Aside from the slight faux-pas wherein nobody mentioned a draw, didn't they used to do a draw for the final to determine who was the "home" team? Do they still do that?

Yes, they toss a coin and the 'home' side gets to wear their home kit (if there is a clash) and gets the England/Home dressing room.

This


The parking was horrific last time, really was hoping not to have to back there untill it was sorted.

Wire v Bulls looks like tie of the round.

Think we'll be the sky game.

Hope Fev show the same passion and pride as against cas.

lucky french again

Another SL club, when are Leeds going to get a few byes into the semis for once!!

It'll be on tv, so no point going to the game!

The thread title is [uCup draw[/u.

There is no draw for any final as both finalists have already qualified for it.

Therefore the rhinos haven't [udrawn[/u SL opposition out of the bag 10 times in a row.

Apart from the fact that it's in the thread title... carry on...




No.

Tossing a coin for which dressing room you get to use or which playing strip to wear is not a cup draw by anyone's definition.

Very tedious and predictable cup draw.

An 8 game win accumulator at the bookies (not including handicaps) will only pay odds of around 2/1. Take the Leigh/Halifax game out and you'd be lucky to get odds of 1/2 on the other seven games.

Nobody said Leeds had drawn 10 SL in a row. He said played 10 on the trot. Which we all know is correct.
We all know the final is not drawn, so stop trying to be funny.

Can't disagree with too much of that, though you may have exaggerated the odds a bit

For once I found myself in total agreement with you.

Having said that, I wouldn't have taken a punt on Fev (or on Widnes getting within a few points of Saints) in the last round. Don't know what the odds were there but both matches turned out very predictable...not!

Possibly, though you'll be surprised how a series of odds around 1/25, 1/50, 1/100 all add up when multiplied together.

Handicaps will be huge.

Wire -20 Bradford +20
Catalan -50 Sheffield +50
Salford +16 Leeds -16
Leigh +8 Halifax -8
Oldham +58 St Helens -58
Featherstone +32 Wigan -32
Huddersfield -54 Swinton +54
Batley +28 London -28

Or something like that.

Been to Salford's new ground - was massively unimpressed, over priced and uninspired choice of refreshments and it took an hour to get out of the car park.

I seriously doubt I'll be going back... ever.

To get all tvoc on you, excluding finals Leeds have drawn SL opposition 12 out of the last 13 occasions.

Agree, and it's totally characterless, and the 'matchday experience' was atrocious...but seeing Sinny crack that record just about made it worthwhile.

Correction, forget to include the Salford draw, that makes its 13 out of 14. Doubt many if any other Super League team can match that over the last few seasons.

meh, a really dull set of fixtures. I'd expect us to win but we could be really struggling considering the large amount of international call ups coupled with the fact we will play a game more than everyone else with the WCC.

no not friday night joke of a place to get to by public trasport one hour on train one hour on the bus

Last away game of the season for me for the Football so I'm hoping and praying it's not on the Saturday.

Sunday would do fine, might even let the Girlfriend do some shopping in Trafford Centre before hand.
