No April Fools here, just the usual four. We don't look as foolish as Hull FC did on Friday though, as Warrington destroyed them. Plenty of praise for the Wire and questions to answer for Hull. What's going on at Catalans? Nilled again, this time at Wigan, and they've got Saints this week. Golden Point drama for Leeds (not in crisis) and Castleford ( who may be in the halves.) We bring you live coverage of the Challenge Cup draw, until we realise that out connection to the BBC website is buffering and we've missed most of it. Plus, we went to the Women's Super League launch, so look at that, a challenge to the clubs, and talk about the Power Meri documentary. Predictions too, so join the podcast that's up to 316th place in Luxembourg!
