Interesting looking cup tie between what looks like two well-matched teams. Looking forward to seeing how Oskar performs at his home track after a great debut at Ashfield.

I predict an Edinburgh win by 10 pts.

New track for tate and fraser. Not sure how much practice troy has had and I know antti struggled last time. We may be relying heavily on troy and the reserves to pick us up some points.

I'll be making the 3 hour journey up to watch. Can't wait. UTC!

Fancy us to win by around 10/15 points. 
 

However don’t know what you’re going to get with Worky round the place. Batch is normally fairly decent, Jacob can be hit or miss. Likes of Bowes and Tate haven’t been before so you don’t know what you’re going to get. Vuolas struggled to get round the place last time and Jye is normally rubbish round the dale. 
 

First home meeting for Polis as well which who knows what you’re going to get from him.

Yeah the radar looks grim now, but there’s still an easterly wind hopefully blowing it back over to the west.

Can’t see a Friday night gap in the calendar for a while if it is to be rerun as the 2nd leg
