Looking back on Round Two of the Betfred Challenge Cup, the rugby league delivered — the technology didn’t quite come up to standard. Dave Parkinson’s interview mic flatly refused to work, thank goodness for Ste Beech who stepped in to get the post-match thoughts of Wigan St Judes boss Dave Myerscough after a brave but bruising 76–4 reversal against early Championship heavyweights Barrow Raiders.
The pair also reflect on a spirited Blackbrook performance against Workington Town, with the Cumbrians’ victory setting up a first meeting with St Helens since 1996. Despite Dave’s ongoing interview mic problems, he found his voice on the shows headsets — and Ste couldn’t shut him up.
