Leeds Rhinos' clash against Castleford Tigers at Headingley and St Helens' trip to Hull KR are the only two all-Super League ties in the fourth round of the Tetley's Challenge Cup.

Experience
Warrington's long-serving stand-off Lee Briers, who kicked six goals in last year's 44-18 fourth-round victory over the Cougars, admits that experience will stand the holders in good stead. "It was tough last year and it will be tough again," he said. "They gave it their all, which is what you expect. "Last year we tried to tell the players what to expect about the changing rooms being tiny and the pitch and slope. We went in a bit blind but this year we're prepared. "It's a classical old rugby league ground, the crowd is on top of you. It's one of the brilliant things about rugby league. "Sometimes in Super League you get spoiled with brand new stadiums and massive changing rooms with five toilets and 12 showers. Sometimes you need a reality check."
