Anyone know who the extra 4 teams are that join in the 3rd round?

From what I can gather, there'll be the 11 winners from round 2 and the 21 teams from the two Co-Op Leagues.

However if my maths is right, that means another 4 teams are needed to make it all add up for the next round when the SL teams come in.

I assume from previous years, that it will be French and Russian sides, but anyone know which ones? Toulouse will be included in the Co-Op League teams, so they won't be one of em.

Unlucky Lock Lane, I was hoping for another Cas derby.

: Sun Feb 15, 2009 1:05 pm  

2 French and 2 Russian teams (Catalans and Toulouse make up the 4 from France)

Dinamo Moscow and Vereya Bears I believe from Russia and Lezignan and Pia from Francealthough I've worked that out from the top 2 of each leagues, but not 100% as they may try to get cup winners in of those countries

Although it may not happen (if the games are seeded), a draw of the Army v a Russian side would be well worth watching I reckon.
