London Broncos • NBR Does Smithers have a hangover.....
Hockley. Well at least we can guarantee we will have a representative on this forum in the third round draw. It will be good to see Paul Kalambayi back at Plough Lane having spent all is career at AFC Wimbledon before joining Dagenham in the summer.
Growing up the Challenge Cup was a staple of the BBC Grandstand calendar, culminating in the Final which was always huge. I was quite excited at the prospect of the Challenge Cup when London Broncos moved to Plough Lane, but with the 12 Super League teams getting a bye to the last 16 it takes away the glamour for me.
Looks like next year it's partially solved with SL teams entering in the last 32. But the implication is all SL teams are playing away so can't meet each other. Which is wrong in my opinion.
