CHALLENGE CUP 6TH ROUND DRAW

POST MATCH: Liam Tindall's try scoring debut New signing Liam Tindall has admitted he's still learning his new teammates names after joining the London club on Tuesday. It was an outstanding start to life as a Bronco with two first-half tries contributing to an outstanding win for Mike Eccles' side. Tindall also admitted he hasn't done a "proper rugby session" since December! To watch the full interview with Liam click below the article.

MATCH REPORT: London Broncos 14-12 Featherstone Rovers London Broncos started their 2025 home campaign with two points after an outstanding defensive display against one of the top sides in the division. Like Bradford Bulls, who Broncos faced in gameweek one, Featherstone are fancied to challenge at the top end of the Championship this season so was always going to provide a stern test for Mike Eccles side. Despite failing to pick up the win against the Bulls there would have been huge positivity taken from the performance that would give fans a degree of expectancy this afternoon which perhaps wasn’t there when the fixtures were announced. That expectancy took an almost immediate knock as Broncos spilled the ball from the kick-off and Featherstone instantly had a set in front of the Broncos try line. It was an unfortunate start to say the least as Thomas Lacans wriggled over to give the visitors the lead after no more than a couple of minutes. Callum Turner added the extras and it was 0-6.

INTERVIEW: Marcus Stock previews Featherstone Rovers Marcus Stock has spoken to London Broncos media ahead of the first home game of the season against Featherstone Rovers. The 28-year-old endured a difficult pre-season after picking up an injury in the first couple of weeks but returned for the season opener away to Bradford to put in a strong performance. Stock believes that Broncos will once again be underdogs this weekend - but that's a position he is more than comfortable being in.
