Thought/ hope this thread might come in handy at some stage. We have retained quite a few good quality players and recruited one. We are ahead of where we were for 202w season on recruitment. Here’s hoping we sign more of our current squad up. Norman has been an important player. Would he fancy Super League with a London team.

I haven’t got any real picks for who we should sign up but I wonder whether Boaofo could do a job in SL- we could do with more depth on the wings. With Ulberg injured did we simply play with one winger in Play offs? Didn’t do us any harm to be fair but seems sub optimal.

Maybe there's the odd one or two worth looking at?

It's going to be interesting to see how we go about it, especially considering the make up of our squad this season. I still think we need to be focused on having a core of academy products and supplementing that with southern hemisphere talent.

I'd be disappointed if we went out and just signed up a load of northern SL rejects and journeymen at the expense of this seasons squad. There will be a balance to be struck however I guess.

Broncos tweeted "attending the Leaders Week London Summit at Twickenham Stadium this week. The event unites the brightest minds and senior decision-makers in sport". Hopefully they are doing some off the field recruitment there :D






Gus Mackay we salute you!!

Well if Danny hasn't got another job since leaving Cas, bring him back (assuming he & Cake are happy with their respective roles).

He's made a big difference. Maybe he did not want to stay in London as I assume we would have offered him a role.

I think the Rhys lives in Harrogate, so Hull is going to be much easier for him. Shame though.

IMG’s not the only criteria we struggle to meet. Hopefully not turned away at the door!
