JOSH ROURKE SIGNS FOR LONDON BRONCOS!

12 December 2023

London Broncos are delighted to announce the signing of English fullback Josh Rourke.


The 24-year-old made 28 appearances for Whitehaven in 2023, scoring 11 try’s and totalling 164 points.

Josh also made a Super League appearance in 2022 for Salford Red Devils.


London Broncos Director of Rugby & Performance Mike Eccles is extremely pleased with the acquisition.

“Josh is a tremendous talent and i’m delighted we’ve been able to bring him to London;

“He was particularly good against us at the Cherry Red Records Stadium towards the back end of the season, scoring two try’s and making a series of big defensive efforts;

“I can’t wait to see Josh develop in a full time environment with us”.


Josh picked up 5 awards at the Whitehaven awards night last season including the director’s player of the year, the coach’s player of the year, the players’ player of the year & the supporter’s player of the year and certainly seems excited to get into the thick of it with the team as he spoke to the club’s official website.


“When I got the call to say London was interested in me, I was attracted straight away. As a player, I want to test myself at the highest possible level & be the best I can be;

“I’m looking forward to meeting the lads & being in a full time environment. I can’t wait to get started & get stuck into pre season;


“It’s going to be a great experience & hopefully a big 2024!”



Welcome to London, Josh!

ON THIS DAY: Castleford Tigers 12-26 London Broncos 13 years ago today London Broncos would travel up to The Jungle to take on Castleford Tigers in the Super League and come away with all the points. Chris Bailey x2, Michael Robertson & Craig Gower would score the tries and Michael Witt with five from five with the boot. The 2013 season was one of few highs and London Broncos would finish 13th just one place off the bottom. A victory on the final day against Bradford Bulls would ensure the club avoided finishing bottom. Did you know that Michael Robertson is now one of the founders of Paladin Sports who are the clubs official kit supplier? #WeAreLondon
