I'd expect Saints to win at home, but otherwise, yeah.
Wonder if the BBC might pick one of the other games instead of ours, though, considering we've already been on TV. (yeah, I know, so have Bradford, but that Saints v Bulls game is the stand-out one).

Assuming we win (oops!)...Saints/Bradford v Leeds next round would be nice!

Could this draw mean we are finally getting some good luck? I think this a good draw as we should be more focust as it is a SL team and not a 1st division one. Come on the lads

..and a team that has beaten us already this season. Good point about the potential for complacency that we've seen before (against UTC last season, for example, a game we deserved to lose, and would have if there'd been a video ref!).

Why have I gone for Stains to lose?
Knowing their audacity they have probably budgeted to get to the final (much like England kick on clap budgeted on winning the 6 nations and lost an estimated 1 million pounds in predicted revenue).
Also some things I can't bring myself to saying such as Saints to win!

Is it just me or does anyone else think the draw looks a bit odd? All the superleague teams get a home game against the lower division teams except for widnes v catalans- which is probably the only upset likely to happen if any. Nice bit of loose change for the SL clubs back pockets from the gate receipts.

Does the draw take place live on tv or locked away in some dark room somewhere? Probably just me looking for a conspiracy but i would put nothing past the rfl- easily the worst governing body in the uk IMO.

Maybe I should take up this prediction lark!

TV:
Sat: Saints v Bulls
Sun: Widnes v Cats

OK - prediction for our match:
Salford 12 Wigan 22

Friday 19th 8pm kickoff.

I might just be able to get away from work in time for that one!
