JIMMY Lowes is "not bothered" who the Bulls face in the Challenge Cup fifth round following yesterday's 74-6 annihilation of Workington.
The draw will be made tomorrow evening and Lowes' men could face Super League sides Hull FC, Hull KR, Wakefield or Salford.
Head coach Lowes said: "I'm not bothered who we get and there is no point in worrying about, so I don't.
"You just get on with it and face them, so there is no point in me lying awake tonight thinking about it."
The Bulls booked their spot with a demolition job of Phil Veivers' part-timers, who battled bravely for much of the first half and the scores were tied at 6-6 until the 33rd minute.
Four tries in seven minutes, including two for Samir Tahraoui, killed off the Cumbrian visitors before Adrian Purtell went on to complete his first hat-trick for the club in a one-sided second half.
Lowes said: "It was just important to get through and we've done that, so we're happy. Workington came down to play and had a good go at us, so you've got to give them a lot of credit.
"They have had to back up after playing Wednesday – they've had to go to work, they train in the evening and it's a tough ask for them. But to show the enthusiasm they showed was a credit to their lads and to Phil Veivers.
"Sometimes you get rewarded for the work you put in throughout the game and when they tired, as they did after the schedule they've had, we took our chances.
"There was some decent stuff from us and we'll prepare to play a slightly different Workington side next Sunday, with players coming back from Wigan on dual-reg. We'll prepare in the same manner."
Lowes also defended scrum half Harry Siejka, saying: "I think Harry did all right last week at Batley and did some good stuff in managing the team.
"He's not going to break the line every time and he has got a role to play within that and I thought he did a good job last week within that role.
"What Harry is good at is his willingness to take the line on, which a lot of half-backs don't, and he doesn't mind taking a crack and being sat on his backside.
"I thought he did okay last week and I thought he did okay once he got hold of this cup game.
"His willingness to take the line on is good – and it was good to see Dale Ferguson get some more game-time again.
"He was pretty good again and Danny Addy is progressing very well too. He's very close to playing."
