Despite having declared their interest in winning the Challenge Cup to qualify for the next season’s Champions Cup, Sharks boss, Powell, avoided the favourites tag, saying there are good teams left in the competition.“I still think there are some very competitive teams left in this Challenge Cup. I don’t think we can say we are favourites to win the Challenge Cup if we get a win over Edinburgh,” Powell said.
