Having seen Batley 3 times this year I don't think they're as good a side as they have been in the last couple of seasons.
Mount Pleasant and that slope is the stuff of legend though, and with John Kear in charge they could just pull it off.

Yep - I'll be there with the kids; love it at Batley.
Went to watch them play Catalans in the CC the other year; Feriol was bulldozing through the Batley players and an old lad behind me shouted, "Bog off Feriol, yer dirty merde!" Made me chuckle. |

I know you shouldn't read in to friendlies etc etc, but we beat a full strength Halifax side 44-14 in January. We play each other on Thursday (live on Premier Sports) which should be an absolute cracker, really can't call it either way. Our recent performances seem to suggest we've recovered from our early season jitters against Batley and Fev. |

Fax Vs Leigh tie of the round, belter at The Shay, surely on TV?
Wigan will knock 50 past Fev, but genuinely looking forward to seeing the class they bring over. Another packed Post Office Road, showing again why Fev should be given a chance in Super League.

Won't be at The Shay Chris. Leigh are at home so will be at the LSV. Agree that it will probably be a very tight match though. Thursday night will be a big marker as to where both teams stand this year. I personally am confident Leigh will go through to the next round but I'm sure Fax fans feel just as confident as we do! |

There aren't many attractive draws this round, which is unfortunate. Fev -v- Batley or Fax would have been good and would have given one of them a chance to get through to the quarters, which would have been great. Although it would be absolutely bloody fabulous to see Wigan knocked out of the cup by Featherstone, it just aint going to happen. Whichever of the championship teams are left in the bag after this round will just be crucified by the Superleague team they meet, unless it is Saints of course, who like to give the game away in the final ten minutes.'"
You didn't see us beat them in July in the NRC final then . |

Batley vs London looks the most interesting tie. Yes, London should win comfortably but, there is an outside chance of an upset and it gives the beeb chance to re run all the Eagles footage etc.
Good luck Batley !

A tad stretch of the truth there Matt. We had a hell of a lot of players missing that day and lost 2 players during the game. Id expect quite a few changes from the team that faced you that day to the one that faces you on Thursday. Should be a hell of a game this Thursday and next week. |

Cheers, disappointed that your game isn't on the TV, bad choice.
Good luck to both teams. |

batley could turn london over if they turn up with the right state of mind like last year against the giants only to be robbered with a silly sending off by robert hicks. 80 minutes of rugby league anybody could win.. just ask hull fc or sheffield fans from previous finals and other clubs from other rounds remember hull kr turning over warrington in a packed craven park in 2006.
