Rugby League: Challenge Cup

2009, 09/05/2009

Clare Balding hosts live coverage from Belle Vue as Wakefield meet Wigan for a place in the Challenge Cup quarter-finals. Twenty years ago, Wigan were dominating the competition, winning eight times in a row between 1988 and 1995. Since then, they have lifted the trophy just once, and their slow start to the 2009 Super League season does not hold much promise of success. The Wildcats beat Wigan in their opening game of the 2009 league campaign, and Cup romantics will point out that the last time Wakefield won the Challenge Cup, back in 1963, their opponents in the final were none other than Wigan. Commentary comes from Dave Woods and Jonathan Davies.
