## Resource

Fresh off a big rugby league weekend, Locky Campbell and Eliot McGuire bring you the lowdown on all the action. Starting with the Challenge Cup we dig into Hull KR's defensive masterclass against Warrington before we revisit Wigan's drubbing off an off-piste St Helens on Saturday. We recap the big news from the week, talking Jim Lenihan's move to the Giants, Damien Cook joining Castleford and Tyson Smoothy potentially leaving Wakefield before we get on to major proposals for the future of the Championship structure. It's then on to an expanded chat of Round 10 of the NRL before we wrap with our picks competition. See you next week! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
