BBC1 and BBC2 are to show some classic Challenge Cup Finals this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, both starting at 1.15. Needless to say Fax are not scheduled to be shown. |

I wouldn't disagree with ones they are showing but surely Fax v Sts is a must along with Leigh v Leeds stay safe |

Without any bias Fax v St Helens was one of the all time classics. Surely that match has to be in the top five Challenge Cup Finals. |

I agree with the Leigh - v Leeds match, however. Weird watching defenders trying desperately to keep kicks from going into touch, and the scrums being contested is a sad loss to the sport, but I think it got to the stage where the refs were just constantly penalising for feeding which became quite irritating. |

That's not how I remember the match at all,I'll have to watch the video again. What I do recall is coming out of Wembley sort of stunned and empty, yet after the Wigan game the season after I almost felt happier. Very strange I agree with the Leigh - v Leeds match, however.
