Keighley v Toulouse
Leigh v Hull Dockers
Swinton v East Hull
Halifax v Castleford Lock Lane.

Ties to be played March 5th/6th

Once again Town got the short straw by being in the bag with the amateur clubs and therefore had to be drawn against a Championship or Ch 1 team!!!!

I remember when .............................

"It is impossible not to feel a twinge of sympathy for Workington Town, the fall guys this season for the Super League's determination to retain it's European dimesion, in the shape of Paris. While the French have had every assistance to survive, the importance of having a flagship in a heartland area like West Cumbria has been conveniently forgotten." - Dave hadfield - Independent 25th Augsut 1996.

Is there a draw to see who goes in with the amateurs then, and why is there even a need for it?

Apparently, there was draw before the draw went online to say which clubs went in with the amateurs and Dewsbury and Town lost out!!!! Toulouse were also put in the amateur bag because the French clubs can't be at home in this round (Haven should have been away to FC Lezignan but it was reversed because of this rule).

This round has 18 matches and the 18 winners go in with the 14 SL clubs to form the last 32 in the competition and because there are 21 Championships clubs, 2 plus Toulouse have to go in the "other" bag. That's why it is done this way.
