Probably Covid jabs. Unless French law has changed you need to be fully jabbed to play in a sports stadium in France. A few players left Toulouse when the law came in and Superleague teams Had the same issue in 2022.
Quite what Broncos think the RFL can do about French law is a mystery. Unless that's code for 'we want them booted out .' Hopefully not.

Yes that would make sense HD and I’m sure we factored in the non availability of these 3 players when salary negotiations went on and when considering squad size. Our 13 will probably be fine, the interchange bench light although difficult to tell if this was an opportunity to beat them whilst they are light on numbers and us on a roll or whether we would get a spanking in any case. On the plus side if our MO is to bring on academy players then they have to get game time. Skolars may be disinclined to pay for untried youngsters which only leaves the Reserves, who take a pasting each game they play, or this type of game. May be a blessing. And also on the plus side we aren’t refusing to play the game leading to a fine and points docking.

Trying to block that game out of my mind. Full time squad, absolutely sxxx performance. That game there and the ‘ back at Trailfinders ‘ spanking by a big old, but not fantastic, Bradford side, is probably why we are where we are...dreaming of mid table obscurity. Sigh.

Every week, I double check the table to see how close to the relegation spot we are. Sad, isn't it?

| 50 + billing isn’t very good really especially when it looks like they are missing a few. Rovers are a much stronger team. That could be embarrassing. Hope we haven’t picked up any injuries.

On the plus side assuming we take a 60 point hammering off Rovers we may still have a better points difference to thos e below us.

True.
It’s not a high bar to aim for but at least if we can keep beating the teams below us….
Pity we have to meet TO two more times!

Too true. Playing Toulouse at the Summer Bash is the gift that keeps giving. It’s like a 2 point handicap.

| Awful from the Broncos in France today. We need to get rid of the fitness coach (as coach) & bring in a proper one. Danny Ward is available outside his Union obligations.

| Magic & Summer weekends just destabilise the season. Not well attended & should be dumped as a not very good idea.
I see our former players filled their boots with tries yesterday, so not all bad news.

Hard to disagree with that Buzz, particularly looking at what they had to work with. Tank Gordon will always be my favourite Coach though but he had some very good players in his squad. Let's hope our tie in with South Africa unearths another Mark Johnson or two. Not sure what they did wrong to tie in with us though. Looking at other teams tieing up with African nations, SA appear to have the booby prize.

Which is why have an extra game is wrong in a league where relegation / play-off places are based on final league placings. Some clubs benefit from the extra fixture and others lose out. Not that I think it will happen because I think London have enough to get a relevant buffer above relegation, but if London where to get relegated by a point to Barrow because Barrow got an extra win against Whitehaven in the bash while London were to lose against TO would just be plain wrong.

Your boys looking very strong this year. Could be your year. Us not so much but we are better than last year. I’m afraid I think you will beat us comfortably but not a complete whitewash. We will see. All the best.

Thanks BT,
I’m still not sure we’ll go up. Will all come down to some playoff games at the end of the year and they have never been our forte.
Anyway I’ll be there on Sunday which hopefully be one step closer to the playoffs.
Hope you can sort yourselves out going forwards.

Cheers Grinder. Most of us on here count it a result if management remember to open the gates. Everything else is a bonus. Sigh.
