Have you not noticed that they are players that were with us last year.
Non of the new signings are on the web site yet, possibly waiting until they get the new kit and they will appear wearing the 2020 shirt

Who do we add to that? how many have we signed?

Squad numbers 1 to 25 already published

Let's be clear here, the "feel good' atmosphere around the club was down to a totally unexpected million pound game followed by a few surprise wins which meant we avoided the inevitable until the last week of the season. I'd hazard a guess that if we'd stayed up, we'd still have a similar looking threadbare squad for 2020 Superleague as we do for the 2020 Championship......anyway....I digress....
I always though that their mantra was treat what few fans you have like mushrooms and try to keep the fact we exist a secret for as long as possible



Think the bookies have given us the Kiss of Death if I am honest and I see Fev and Toulouse as stronger sides than us Sammut at Leigh elevates them in my eyes, with Widnes as dark horses along with York

Time will tell.

Yep. Spot on .... maybe a year or two. Back in SL

Very 'sage"...


The Squad looks like it has some balance and the youngsters who have been promoted up will gain experience. I take it that the 6 or 7 who don't get selected for the 1st XIII will be used in the reserve grade? This will make sure that everyone is "match fit' when they are called upon and may give us a slight edge against sides not running a reserve grade, but I still think we are 3 "senior" players short. A bit of Grunt in the pack and a bit of guile in the halves......and please, someone on the right to stop us being a tad porous down that flank which has been an issue for a few years IIRC.

I'll stick my neck out here and say we could make the MPG 2020, but it'll be from outside the top 2 spots, possibly top 3.

2021 at the earliest, absolutely no chance next year.
Hope to be proved wrong but a top half finish is the best we can hope for unless our kids are brilliant at this level when they get their chance.

We could really do with a gnarly old forward to do a job for us like Thacks did a few seasons ago.

Got to agree, leigh toulouse York and prob fev will push us hard.
4th spot I reckon is best we will do, as for making MPG from there who knows

As a first 17, I think we can have a good go with anyone. My worry is the depth. We could be relying alot on youth/inexperience when injuries take hold. If there are 3 more incoming, as per Wardy (2 forwards and 1 back) that could be a bg boost, just depends if it is older experienced heads or 3 young squad fillers

https://londonbroncosrl.com/first-team-squad/ Numbers have crept up to 25 although there are a few faces that look similar ! Is that us for the season 25 man squad? Plus reserve squad?

Just looking at that squad what do we think the starting 13 would look like?

By my reckoning of the 25, 5 half backs, 3 hookers and 5 wing/full backs, so 12 'others', so looks like a well balanced squad !

Wardy hopefully is charging his magic wand ready for the season

Ignore Widnes as a serious contender at your peril.

Gone very quiet on our 3 new signings

Sounds like the prop Mitch Allgood is coming just waiting on visa. https://www.loverugbyleague.com/

Spoke to one of our competitors coaches today. He thinks clubs will bring in more now new year is over(keeps cost down bringing in them in late, his words)
Says if you’re above London you win the league
Says Leigh London TO have the money

I think if we are running on a limited budget bringing in high earner through the year make sense. Just gotta get those signing right and this young squad has to preform and keep pace with top of the champ

Still no news on new players

Still waiting on the 3 new incomings. Anyone, anyone, is there anyone out there!!!
