I’m a neutral too and I’d rather walk round Tesco than watch that.

If you can pick up some stuff for me while you're there that would be great.

The shopping list won’t include sleeping tablets.

Or, more likely, it’ll be error strewn, low quality and a tough watch. 

Then don't watch!!

Playing devil's advocate a little here.

But what if its a close, exciting game played in decent weather with a good crowd in t shirts and a good atmosphere that may come across as good on TV to non cynical RL fans?

Sports fans know what errors are whether the score is 40-0 or 40-40.

Oh trust me, I won’t be watching Hull FC.  I can still have an opinion on how I think it’s a terrible game to pick by the BBC, in the same way you continually bang on about promotion and relegation on any IMG thread.

On a general point does any one know what the prize money is for clubs that win in each round?

This is the sort of information that the RFL used to broadcast annually but seems to have dipped under the radar nowadays.

But not everyone will see errors, they may just see entertainment.

As I say not everyone is as negative and pessimistic as RL fans

You can stick the Challenge Cup where the sun don't shine, RFL completely ruined it with the ridiculous format. And they think by introducing the 1895 cup will help sweeten things for clubs outside Super League.

Many will have just finished an interminable period where the other code's Six Nations has been on their screens every weekend. 

The handling in this cup tie, whether the predicted errors are there or not, will be a refreshing improvement.
