Wes Naiqama (sp?) is the other big signing, I'm sure there's more too but I'm not particularly up on their transfer dealings.

Life is pretty simple: You do stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works.:cartoons/WB24.gif



Our squad so far is:

Retained players from last year:
Nick Slyney, Ben Farrar,

Retained players from our academy:
Joel Wicks, Toby Everett, James Woodburn-Hall, Jon Wallace, Joe Keyes, Harvey Burnett, Oscar Thomas, Alex Walker, Illiess Macani

Announced new signings so far:
Matt Garside (Sheffield Eagles), Daniel Harrison (Manly Sea Eagles), Ray Nasso (Sporting Olympique Avignon), Josh Cordoba (unattached), Liam Foran (Parramatta Eels), William Barthau (Catalan Dragons), Richard Mathers (Wakefield Trinity Wildcats), Wes Naiqama (Penrith Panthers), Rhys Williams (Central Queensland Capras), Rhys Lovegrove (Hull KR)

A pretty good squad shaping up and a chance for a pre season for a change.

You forgot to mention the addition of Andrew Henderson onto the coaching staff.

They won't lack motivation but if they do,request the recordings of Paul Rowley the Leigh coach from BBC radio Manchester.

Mummy duck is now thoroughly depressed. SHE was the one that was famous for losing five in a row........until the 2011 GF!!!!!:



The one problem that the Broncos will face next season is a whole division of teams desperate to prove they were as good as the Broncos for all those seasons when the majority of fans were asking "why?"

That’s not the one problem, it’s the first problem.

The second problem is, even if they manage to overcome those said clubs in the Championship, they then have to face better squads from the bottom of S.L, which I personally feel is the greater challenge.

And that 's the trouble - as far as the regular season's concerned even now the top four's looking like Bradford, Leigh, London and A.N. Other (I was looking to Fev or Halifax, but they seem to have problems as things stand at the moment) but part two's going to be a bit different.

Oh come on, I think they've done enough to avoid relegation, surely? icon_wink.gif

Richard Mathers, Rhys Lovegrove, William Barthau, and Waisele Ligani Naiqama provide the foundations of a powerful team, the likes of which London fans have not seen for more than a year. Of the new signings, only Liam Foran looks like a mistake.

Wakefield Trinity Wildcats without Richard Mathers will not be the same side in 2015 as this year, and I fully expect London to replace Wakefield in Super League for 2016.

This may or may not happen, but it won't be on the back of anything Mathers does.

Did you get rid of all the voices in your head? Do you now miss them and the things that they said?:

But, you thought Mark Minichiello had signed for Hull KR so, forgive us if we take your predictions with a pinch of salt.

Wakefield have a monster pack to be fair. Injuries and the timing of injuries will be crucial.

I think relegation could be the shot in the arm the club needs, a stronger squad winning games regularly will be a breath of fresh air to the struggle they've had for years.

But you are the supporter of a side that is experiencing a talent drain and facing relegation at the end of 2015, so pardon us if we take your smug arrogance with a pinch of salt.

London have won once all year in 2014. In 2015 they firstly need to qualify for the 8 then defeat SL
Opposition TWICE to be promoted.
The signings we've made for next year are of a decent championship level but I doubt they will be good enough to cope with the worst team in SL.
I believe HKR were the last championship side who knocked of a SL team in a one off game......remind me how they went in he next round?
