How do you fancy their chances

Hard to say a lot depends for the RAF on who is available for selection or out of area or on courses or injured etc etc. As to the opposition I know nothing about them. Their Facebook page says they were only founded in 2012 but have done well since that time.

Fancy West Hull to win against the Navy without to much trouble, the Army might give Bentley a better game but it would be a surprise if all 3 services got through.

West Hull 42 - 12 Navy
Bentley 18 - 16 Army

RAF kicked off at 13.00 today (27/01) so fingers crossed.

Good call for your earlier post. With any luck they might give Wigan a good pasting.

All the best for the next round.
