I thought Trinity might have to wait to see who our opponents were before announcing the semi final details.  Clearly not.

Why would you think that?

Is it not a shared gate?  Thought our opponents might have input into dates and prices.   Obviously neither.

Clubs and RFL have been consulted prior to the announcement and yes it is a shared gate.

Well I hope that the clubs fans pull their fingers out and get down to Belle Vue for the semi whomever it is. Been some pitiful away followings this season in terms of numbers bar a a couple of games.

I predict Fev in semi. 
 

My prediction is…

Bulls vs Fev (Fev win)

York v Widnes (York win)

 

Trinity v Fev (Trinity win)

Toulouse v York (York win)

 

final - Trinity v York (Trinity win )

How do Widnes win but York progress to next round?

Fielding an unregistered player.

It's a hell of an off the wall prediction.

They don’t, I was typing fast and it was supposed to be York win.

But probably shorter odds than Dewsbury beating the Eagles last week.....

I wonder why?

Well yes obviously it would be a tough fixture for anyone to come and win this year but I did expect better than what materialised. 
 

Exceptions were Bulls who probably brought most and this one or two others brought a ok amount. 
 

Dons were small in number but loud and did their club proud.

Why? Away followings are notoriously low in the Championship and Wakefield are not exactly a big draw especially when considering most games they play in are a forgone conclusion. It probably does not help that its the lowest quality championship in many years either.
