The Cup was in full swing this week, but there was also time for Manchester to claim a first win, Cheshire to get a little revenge against Bristol and Leicester against Newcastle. Dan and Dave look back at all the action in the SLB this week.

The trophy took centre stage as Newcastle took the first leg lead and Bristol punched their ticket to Birmingham. Meanwhile in the league Sheffield moved top of the table with two wins. Dan and Dave look back at the action and assess if Dave got a little too excited with Newcastle's Euro win?
