Leigh & KR is a cracking tie plus, Dewsbury v Batley.
Salford will demolish Toronto, who would have made a more interesting tie against Championship opposition.

Leigh v KR

And she also referred to the draw for the Super League cup and got the Wigan Widnes cup final score the wrong way round.

The BBC roving sports reporter (Kat something or other) on Monday morning referred to League Leaders "Castlesfield" (exactly how she pronounced it!) losing for the first time yet reeled off the names of a couple of gompers who throw themselves off a ski slope dressed in lycra for a living. They really don't make any effort do they? Did they do the draw properly this time? No Woking Town or Keeley?

Leigh v KR appeals, so far this season Leigh have upset a fair few more highly rated teams. Be interesting to see whether the reverse scenario happens.

Batley and Dewsbury should be good for the odd punch up though the latter seem to be a poor side this year. Pity, as they've had some very tight encounters in recent years.

A shame there won't be a game televised on the BBC, but streaming a game is some consolation. Hopefully they pick Leigh v Hull kr, who will want revenge for Leigh taking their Super League place.
