Didn’t think I’d be saying this but Reagan Campbell-Gillard in a Broncos shirt looks set to happen. Siliva Havili to be joining too and Neil Tchamambe’s in on loan (but can be recalled at any point in the season).  Remember we will be a full-time squad in 2026.

Certainly not your usual off-season in SW19. And a far cry from the last few years of late, low-key signings.

1. Reagan Campbell-Gillard from Gold Coast Titans (Marque signing)

2. Siliva Havili from South Sydney Rabbitohs (Not confirmed?)

3. Neil Tchamambe from Wakefield Trinity (on loan)

4. Dean Hawkins from Parramatta Eels

5. Sadiq Adebiyi (retained)

6. Marcus Stock (retained)

7. Sam Davis from SalfordRD (ex-Broncos)

8. Jake Ramsden from Warrington Wolves

Who do you reckon the two Broncos lads are (behind Locky on the left) checking out the Aussie training moves in this pic? Brandon Webster-Mansfield (though I heard a rumour he’s leaving) and Lewis Bienek maybe? New hats too! Edit: Can't seem to be able to post the pick so you'll have to do a copy & paste. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G33WWS5XcAARl1i?format=jpg&name=medium https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G33WWS5XcAARl1i?format=jpg&name=medium" align="left" alt=""> https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G33WWS5XcAARl1i?format=jpg&name=large" align="left" alt="">

There’s another photo doing the rounds that is definitely Adebiyi and Stock. The latter is a great retention and a bit unexpected. I agree in this photo one is Brandon the other looks like Sam Davis to me. 

With that in mind probably time for the club to pulse out some announcements on retentions.

A whisper Tommy Porter was there as well so that’s good news.

Dean “Footy Dean” Hawkins from Parramatta in the halves. Makes you wonder what’s drawing these players to leave NRL contracts behind and come over to play in the UK Championship.  Must be more than just £££? 

Darren Lockyer, I believe is the answer.

What concerns me is that as far as I can see. There is at the moment nothing that I can see showing an obvious route for promotion to Super League, from the Championship.

I can't either, not sure the RFL have brains capable of thing more than 1 season ahead. Chances of whether P&R will take place may be decided by for, Toulouse looking likely to finish bottom & against if Bradford look like finishing bottom. With Wood at the helm, you never know. 

I agree DC1 and Woods is going to do his utmost, to stop Bradford from being relegated as you say..

I think we can safely say that if the Bradford Bulls finish bottom of Super League they won't be relegated, but I'm not sure what will happen if another team does.It could be really embarrassing for British Rugby League IF the Bradford Bulls finish bottom, and either Oldham Bears or London Broncos win the Championship Grand Final.
