Well done Hendo, no apologies.

Edited to accept updates from other posts.

Is that a squad that can get into the top 4?

With the removal of the salary cap from RFL approved clubs, can't see how we can win this year, but would think a challenge for 3rd is there. Bookies agree Leigh, Bradford, Broncos, Sheffield, Fax is the pecking order.

I thought Burnett had left. Presume Ackers would be in top 17 as would think there will be a rotation of the two hookers

Harvey Burnett no longer plays for us, he left back end of last season

Other than that, I believe it's a squad that should definitely get into the top 4.

Recruitment completed: www.londonbroncosrl.com/news/png ... s-broncos/ and there should be 28 of them. www.londonbroncosrl.com/news/wal ... o-broncos/

The 28 is as listed above minus Burnett who left and Adebiy who is still in the academy

Not necessarily the order of shirt numbers I'd choose
Offerdahl's a bit far down the list and Garside should be higher up the list. he did enough last year to be considered a starter. Up to the new boys to prove themselves.

Be very interesting to see who makes first choice halves and run on side props. Challenge for new guys is to break into a good run on 13.

If Kear makes his decision on where he wants to be, and Hendo accepts he is committed to the team, a suggested 17. Otherwise straight 1-7.

32. Kear
2. Williams
3. Stapleton
4. Wes
1. Hellewell
6. Eliab
7. Barthau
18. Thackray
9. Cunningham
10. Battye
11. Harrison
12. Garside
13. Lovegrove

14. Ackers
21. Foster
16. Ioane
17. Offerdahl

5. Marconi
8. Slyney
15. Bussey
19. Keyes
20. Leatherbarrow
22. Davis
23. Magrin (Wallace)
24. Walker
25. Everett
27. Pointer
28. Gray

Who is this Marconi?? Is he any good?

Decent transmission over distance. Blooming spell check.

He must be on someone's radar.

Apparently he's on the same wavelength as Hendo.
