5 all SL ties, great chance for the minnows to progress. I assume Huddersfield v Saints and Hull FC v Salford will be on tv. As for our game, just what I always want in the early rounds to be honest, a ground I've never been to before and a chance for a debut or two. Unless they play it at Wigan....?

nah - the night out at Fev the other year was fun (lasers notwithstanding). Not wishing to be patronising (& Rams are no slouches) but a decent turnout will help their cashflow & it's often nice to remind some of our pampered ponies how the other half live.

Aye I hope so, I always enjoy going to grounds I haven't been to before and really enjoyed Fev. Having said that there were 4k on that night, Dewsbury's ground only holds 3.5k. I'm sure I'll be shot down for this but I'd put the prices up a bit, make some money for Dewsbury whilst still getting a capacity crowd

Already researching the local pubs and hoping to meet up with Waggas dad for a good chat and a pint or two.

The warm ball again!

Happy enough with this, a ride over to a nice little ground in West Yorkshire to see Wagga and his new mates, and at least five Super League out of the running by the end of the day.

that's a great draw for us hopefully our young lads will put on a good show vs dewsbury and we can find some decent form for the next round!

Remember going away to Dewsbury years ago in the cup, I think it may have been on our run to the 98 cup final before Sheffield beat us.

It'd be nice to play it at there place but tickets won't be easy to come by.

Nice little ground? It's an absolute dump. There are only 2 stands.

Incorrect , there are three stands at dewsbury , one seated and two terraced .

I don't think it will be too bad, especially for s/t holders, capacity 3,700, but they've never really had more than half of that. Except for......... wigan.rlfans.com/fusion_pages/in ... age_id=508 But that was 15 years ago !

Already got a little group of mates going. Gonna be a great night

Good grief this draw make me feel old, again!
Last time I went to Dewsbury was 1970 in the C Cup 1st Round.
Wigan won 11-2 with tries by Keri Jones 2 and Bill Ashurst, one goal by Colin Tyrer. Details thanks to Bilko's site.
Always remember going, cloudless sky and had to drive with sun glasses on for part of the journey, it snowed whilst the game was on then poured down with rain on the way back. Like three seasons in one day!
Sometimes I just start........sorry!

Remember it well, we went on to Wembley that year only to be beaten by Castleford (bet Colin Tyrer cant remember much though) !!!

Tie to be played on Friday 4th April - 8:00pm Kick Off.

I remember Duggie Laughton breaking down the blind side from a scrum and sending Keri Jones away down the wing for a try.
Also stood on a grassy bank behind the sticks which soon turned into a slippery mess as the weather changed.
Not like todays summer rugby.

It was a terrible pass and Jones picked it up from his bootlaces. The pitch was about 6" deep in "slutch" but Jones had fantastic acceleration even in those conditions he absolutely flew in at the corner. Brings back happy memories, and tears to my eyes, as I remember being at the game with mam & dad.

Huddersfield v Saints the battle of the new wannabes, or maybe the never-wasers and the has-beens. Only time will tell.
