It's a loss for us, but I'd still wish him a full recovery and all the best for the future.

Agreed - we are blessed with decent depth in the pack this year. Offendahl, Cunningham, Everett and Wallace didn't play at weekend.

I wouldn't be surprised if Hendo has a look around for a replacement though, although not sure on overseas quota etc. and there is no pressure to replace him.

On a different point, surprised no mention so far of Featherstone's dual reg weekend, Handley, Aitchurch and Baldwinson from Leeds !

Great shme, hadnt realised about the concussion issue - will be missed, but we aew in a better situation in the forwards at the moment

Hold up, Rhys Lovegrove is Antipodean.
He was fully involved at Dewsbury, he filmed the game,
I know he has been talking about setting up a business, so the writing has been on the wall for a while.
I would say he was one of our better players last season, it just was a shame he got injured.

On a one month trial at Bradford, just been announced.

Decent player for you guys then? Before the injury, I mean.

It claims he's going back due to personal reasons, that could be for family or health reasons. What ever it is I wish him the best and thanks.

As for a replacement I can't see why the club will rush into replacing him. We are still to see offerdhal in action yet ( anyone have any news on him). We also have Ben Gray and Sadiq Adebiyi to call on. Then that will give the time to look around for someone suitable.

Does anyone know if Lovegrove counted on the overseas quota ?

I am pretty sure he is off the quota, having played in this country for so long.

Unfortunately it was a simple matter of economics for Rhys -- although not extravagant in his personal life he found it totally impossible to rent a home in London and support a wife and two small children. There was never any money left to spare after paying for rent and "no frills" food for the four of them. He looked at lots of ways to supplement his Broncos salary but was getting deeper into debt and had no choice but to leave the capital. Rhys enjoyed his time with the Broncos he has nothing but the highest praise for Andrew Henderson, admiration and pride in his former team mates and fondness for the Team's fans.

Economics of southern living which has been mentioned as a barrier to the Broncos success time after time.

We all know the biggest barrier to Broncos success.

I'm just not allowed to mention him directly.

It seems an odd time of the season to make a decision like this.
Bradford seem to be collecting ex London players.

Its worked fro Cas!!
