I am asking this question because the signing of Jamie Soward gives the club a big boost going into the middle 8s. It would be a smart use of the Chairman's money to sign a couple more players to help Mr Soward elevate London.
I know that the club is in urgent need of a big ferocious prop forward. But what about a quality centre? Looks like there is one available from the NRL, someone who played in a premiership winning South Sydney side in 2014. He has had his troubles off field, but the new environment of London might be a welcome change for him, and good for the Broncos:

I don't know if the June 30th registration deadline for Super League also applies to the Championship.

Gareth Walker @garethwalker13 Jun 30
Had it confirmed by the RFL that signings deadline day is July 22 for all three competitions, not today

I am glad to hear that. Now it is up to the Chairman to dig into his pockets to try to find a couple of quality players to help Jamie Soward in his quest to help the club get back into Super League. I know that David Highes has done a lot already, but this is an opportune moment that may not come again. The South Sydney centre Kirisome Auva'a is one possibility. But a strong prop forward is also needed. With such additions it will be easier for Mr Soward to weave his magic.

| If we're in the market for banned players with suspect attitudes/team ethic and questionable intellect, I'd have rather had Carter. Hopefully we're not, so it's moot.

| Just to follow on from this, and to appease my own curiosity, who are your quota players currently?
Looking at your squad I can gather the following would be on one or both quotas; Eliab, Naiqama, Pewhairangi, Harrison, Ioane, Offerdahl, Slyney, Stapleton and Soward to come. (Although I haven't seen or heard much of Stapleton TBH?)
Not trolling just trying to keep up to speed with things.

Api is definitely on an Irish passport so non quota. Not 100% on which of the others are quota of their exemptions

Two is the rumour. Iliess Macani & Jon Magrin.

| Are the rumours also true that Bradford are remaining themselves the 'London Rejects'?
