Disgrace really as should be after Leeds v Saints. Heard the draw is not even live! Think around 3 PM on Tuesday but could be wrong on the time

http://www.therfl.co.uk/challengecup/news_item.php?id=13607 Whats wrong with having the draw on at the same time LIVE for each round? Should have been drawn live promoting the Cup after the Saints v Leeds game! What is the reason behind holding the draw behind closed doors on some RAF base. Pathetic RFL!

Steve McNamara was one of the most disgruntled, angry coaches I've seen in a post match interview, not surprising really.

Salford beating Hull is a massive shock as well.

Dont think anybody would argue - but everybody would expect the RFL to make awful decsions. They have history.

He might have been better off using the air time telling potential employers what other skills he has outside of being a poor RL coach - think he will be out of a job by the end of the week.

I played rugby for a couple of seasons with Damien Clayton, a Halifax lad that arranged the training camp at RAF Aldergrove for Halifax in Pre-season. Absolutley devoted to Rugby League in both civilian and service environments, got his MBE for services to Rugby League in the Armed Forces.

That being said, WHAT THE **** IS THAT ALL ABOUT? Behind closed doors? 3 in the afternoon? where is the drama? Whats wrong woth live on radio, or would it be too much to ask for it live after the final live TV game has been played in the previous round

draw to be made between 2:30 & 3 on Tuesday, probably depends on what time Big Nige finishes his lunch. True professionalsim again by the RFL!

What a joke, they could have done it staright after the leeds saints game live on the box. What a set of clowns.

No need for hot and cold balls if it is not live...they are probably working out the best / most absurd fixtures as we speak (write).

Are they doing it from some random blokes front room again?

Straight after the televised game makes so much sense...why is this not an option?

Because Top Gear was on.
