Thoughts on upsets, who's likely to slip up against a lower ranked team?

I'll go for Featherstone Lions beating Skirlaugh and (if the pitch is a bog) Saddleworth Rangers putting out Thatto Heath. Can't see many possible upsets in that draw.

5 clubs knocked it back.Egremont,St Pats,St Judes,Dockers,Rose Bridge.Obviously think it's not worth it.Can't help agreeing with them....It's not what it was

In what sense is it not worth it? I know there's been a couple of incidents when getting to the rounds where pro sides come in that amateur sides haven't benefited much from the tie but still don't understand why that would make you reject RL's most prestigious tournament - especially in the early rounds, it's a decent preseason game and for the home sides at least a bit of money for the club.

Seen Wallsend Eagles play a few times this year in the North East league. Play some great attacking rugby. I think they could definitely cause Pilkington an upset. I'm sure Pilkington will already have one eye on the night out in Newcastle after the game.....

That's very good to hear. Must admit, to me, Wallsend and the North East League are an unknown quantity. I shall have to see about a drive up there for a game during the 2018 season.
