British Army and Royal Navy reach Challenge Cup second round

Elsewhere on Saturday, there were wins for National Conference League sides Hunslet ARLFC and West Hull, who will face off to set up a clash with St Helens in the third round.

There were big wins for West Hull and Crosfields, who defeated Edinburgh Eagles and Maryport without conceding a point, 90-0 and 52-0 respectively.

But Midlands Premier Division champions Telford United bowed outas they went down 64-16 at Rochdale Mayfield.

The Challenge Cup has been reduced from nine rounds to seven for 2025, meaning the biggest teams in the country will enter earlier, and all 12 Super League sides will play away from home when they join the competition.

The final two remaining first round ties will be played on Sunday.
