St Helens v Leeds
Wakefield v Hull
On bbc website.
I reckon they have cocked up. It should have been Saints v Hull Leeds V Wakefield. The wrong balls have gone in the microwave. TYPICAL RFL

Not wishing to be a conspiracy theorist; but the RFL had little choice to make this draw following the foul up where the draw was released 6 hours before it took place.

Had they kept Leeds and stains apart then everyone would have again shouted "Fix!"; by doing it this way, they think that they are restoring some credibility to the "draw"

Wonder if long had some money on the last draw?

Where are the venues likely to be played?

Saints v Leeds - Warrington? or Reebok?
Hull v Wakefield - Huddersfield?

Depending on perspective it is a good draw as it gives Saints a tough task and may stop them reaching the final. From a purist point of view it would have been a great final.

Hull reaching the final would make the RFL look very bad.
