Love away games

Championship:
Bridlington v Littleborough - Little - -7
Ripon v Whitley Bay Rockliff - Whitley +7

North Plate:
Bramley Phoenix v Old Otliensians - OO +7
Huddersfield Laund Hill v Halifax - HLH +7
Roundhegians v Baildon - Baildon +7
Sedgefield v Northallerton - Sedge -7

Couple of unknowns but went with gut instinct

Locked Out

"Champions League"
Bridlington v Littleborough: It looks like a long schlepp across the M62 and more for the Lancashire side, so sticking with home advantage. Brid +7

Ripon v Whitley bay Rockliff: Not wishing to jinx things and noting recent form, Rugrats have done well against D&N sides over the past couple of seasons. That said, it could be a close run thing. Ripon -7

"Mere Mortals"
Bramley Phoenix v Old Otliensians: Think both will want to play and both happy to raise their game for a cup run. High scoring but fancy OO's +7

Huddersfield Laund Hill v Halifax: Could be a real clash of the Titans here and if HLH backs can get the ball, they'll win it. HLH +7

Roundhegians v Baildon: Another interesting encounter if Hegians play to their full potential and fire up earlier. Could be an upset for Bai£don here. Hegians -7

Sedgefield v Northallerton: Sticking with the principle that D&N sides are not as strong as Yorkies, hopefully North will get into their groove and geta result. North +7

Absurd Stevo, makes a mockery of the competition, club and player preparation.

RFU just need to cancel this Cup, let teams focus on the league and then county Cups

Direct your opinions to a certain Mr Terry Burwell who does whatever he likes and thinks that the clubs want it. Its absolute baloney but only by standing together we will ever break his pig headedness.

Otliensians gave Bramley the WO carnt raise a front row,apparently ;)
The writing is on the walli feel

Should just go back to how it used to be, win your county cup at your level and get entered into the national cup that way 🤷🏻�♂️
