He (Lewis Bienek) looked like he would do a job at Championship level but would need to improve quite a bit to figure on a regular basis in Super League. It wasn't the biggest surprise to see subsequent loans to Championship clubs.

Confused, who are we signing, Butler or Bienek?
Both, I have to admit, are under my radar as I cannot recall either of them.

Butler, according to League Express.

Thanks, MKK. I note that he's had game time at London, before Covid19 interrupted most facets of our existence.

Sorry that’s my fault. The potential signing of a London prop for next year (Butler) reminded me of a year or two ago of missing out of signing another London prop (Bienek) who looked a beast on his you tube video. By all accounts Bienek hasn’t progressed well with the step up to SL.

No problem. If Bienek was a good prospect a couple of seasons ago, then he hasn't managed to realise that potential.

2 pages into this thread and RD hasn't commented yet on how we should be signing battye and not butler. He will not be happy!!

I don't think i have said this about Warrington for a long time but that is a smart signing. He looks to have bags of potential. Was he the local London lad signed from union as a youngster? He looked very good in SL though and is certainly a raw talent. Luke Yates was their star man though and he has struggled at Salford.

From Rochester, Kent. Came through the juniors at Medway Dragons (Amateur RL) before joining London Broncos Academy. Made his first team debut for the Broncos in 2018 aged 19 and has recently turned 22.
