New Structure for 2025 Challenge Cup
The Betfred Challenge Cup will have a new structure in 2025, with the 12 Super League clubs joining the Road to Wembley at the Third Round stage.

The Third Round draw will be held in January, well before the start of the Super League season, with the aim of building more momentum towards the showpiece Finals Day in June.

It means that clubs from the Betfred Championship, League One and even the community game will have more chance to secure a glamour tie at home to Super League opposition, as the Third Round draw will be seeded to guarantee each of the Super League clubs travel away to one of the 20 Second Round winners.

Doesn't really change anything. Stop protecting SL teams & have a free draw.

I cannot get excited about The Challenge Cup. It is all too predictable.

Hopefully will generate a little cash for lower league sides. Still don’t think we’ll come anywhere close to winning it though.

It is many years since London Broncos have taken the Challenge Cup seriously.

The year we got to the SF, got spanked by Wigan ( and the subsequent Hughes hissy fit ) was the last season I recall us doing anything remotely serious in the CC.
Sadly

Shake your chains to earth like dew

That is my opinion too.
