Leeds v Saints (obv)
Hull KR v Celtic (novelty)

Might it be a game BBC will show especially as they have chosen to follow 'Fax's progress through the competition?

Its a nice thought but I doubt it very much, not with 5 all Superleague games.

Leeds vs St Helens is the most obvious one for a Saturday game to be shown and possibly Catalans vs Bradford, to see a french side go through.

Celtic are bound to be on as the Welsh public are biting at the bit for RL as the massive viewing figures for the SL show reveal.........errrrrrr........yes

Can't see the Beeb paying for a trip to France. Would expect Barrow-Wigan to be the other tie with the potential of a giantkilling.

The BBC don't tend to show teams outside SL, I think I remember Whitehaven vs Warrington a few years ago though

They were quarter finals though, not early rounds.

With their being so many All SL clashes our chances of Beingon Telly in this round are 0.

If we progress, who knows.
