I CAN assure you it wasn’t planned.

But there’s no doubt the number of chances we blew against Castleford made sure our quarter-final clash was a bit of a thriller and went right down to the wire.

We carried on from where Hull KR and Warrington left off the day before when the Wolves made it through to the last four with a golden point.

That must have made the Rugby Football League happy, because the BBC television audience were treated to two classic Cup-ties which should have kept everyone entertained from start to finish.

So, all-round, it really was a fantastic weekend!
