Challenge Cup fourth round draw: Toronto take on Broncos
Wednesday 1 March 2017 08:53, UK
Toronto Wolfpack will face a stern test in the fourth round of the Challenge Cup after being paired with London Broncos.
The Canadian newcomers, who overcame Halifax amateur club Siddal 14-6 in the third round, will face the former Super League club in London over the weekend of March 18-19.
The Broncos were cup finalists in 1999 and, although they were relegated from Super League three years ago, they are currently third in the Kingstone Press Championship after winning three of their opening four matches this season.
Toronto will also be in London on Saturday to kick off their League One campaign against the Skolars.
Another highlight of the fourth-round draw is the clash between Bradford and Featherstone, a repeat of the 1973 final at Wembley.
There are other all-Championship ties at Hull KR, who host Sheffield Eagles, and Toulouse, who entertain Batley.
St Helens amateurs Haydock, the only community club left in the draw, face an away trip to Oldham.
Four of the Super League clubs will join the event in the round while the remaining eight enter in round six.
Fourth-round draw:
Hull KR v Sheffield Eagles
Swinton v London Skolars
Bradford v Featherstone
Toulouse v Batley
Oldham v Haydock
University of Gloucestershire v Doncaster
Whitehaven v Oxford
York v Rochdale
London Broncos v Toronto

Ties to be played March 18/19.
