Lewis Bienek pledges future to London Broncos


London Broncos are delighted to announce that prop forward Lewis Bienek will be staying at the club for the 2025 season.


One of the most powerful props in Super League, we are naturally delighted to be able to secure the services of ‘One of our Own’ as we embark on a new era at the club.


Across two spells at London Broncos, the 26 year old has firmly established himself as a fans favourite and was named Coaches Player of The Year in 2023.



Speaking on the news, Bienek says he’s excited to carry on his journey with his boyhood club;


“I'm really happy to be staying with London next year, given the massive improvement the club has made to build our IMG rating, we have an exciting opportunity to build back to super league again.


“This is going to be a big transition year and we will need all the fans to get behind as again as they did last year. I have been in London many years now and there is nowhere else I would rather be.”

Along with Lewis Bienek, Mike Eccles has also announced that academy product Harry Stevens and Chairman’s Player of the Year for 2024 Marcus Stock will also be staying at the club.


“We have had to take stock of where we are at in terms of finances, what can we afford to put together? What money can we generate? That will determine what we can put on the field. 


“There were three contracted players at the club, they were Marcus Stock, Harry Stevens and Lewis Bienek and we are delighted to announce that we can honour their contracts and that’s fantastic news for the club.


“We are also delighted to announce that there are upwards of ten players, who were with us last year, that we are in negotiations with. They are keen to stay and we are keen to have them.


“We’ve also opened negotiations with a series of other players as well, some players we are looking to bring back to the club, with London connections, which is still the way I want the thread of the team to be.


“It’s exciting times, things have started moving and we will have a lot more updates on that so hopefully that will all move very quickly.”

GAMEWEEK: Featherstone Rovers vs London Broncos Off the back of another win at The Cherry Red Records on Saturday against Hunslet the Broncos move into cup action this weekend. We turn our attentions to the 1895 Cup and a place in the semi-finals is at stake when we head to Featherstone Rovers to take on Paul Cooke's side. The last time we were in the 1895 Cup we reached the semi-final stages of the competition and will be looking to go at least one step further on this occasion. Broncos have already faced Featherstone once this season and it was Mike Eccles side who took the win in a league game at Wimbledon. The last time Broncos played at Featherstone was in the semi-final of the play-offs in 2023 and it was the Broncos who picked up a shock win to progress to the final and ultimately seal promotion back to Super League.

LONDON BRONCOS V HUNSLET (by David Ballheimer) London Broncos (16) 26, Hunslet (0) 6 London Broncos produced one of their most dominant defensive performances in recent memory as they beat Hunslet at the Cherry Red Records Stadium on Saturday night. Such was London’s control of the ruck that the Yorkshiremen had only one attack on the London line, and they turned over the ball-carrier before he could ground the ball. At the other end, Hunslet could not cope with the power and strength of London’s ball-carriers. The Broncos made a great start, scoring on their second possession, courtesy of Marcus Stock, who found a way through three tacklers before stretching over the line and grounding the ball. Most of the credit, however, belonged to Huw Worthington, who charged 35 metres downfield returning a kick. Four minutes later, Stock turned provider, turning in a tackle and sending Luke Polselli over. The half-back was able to run behind the posts to make Chris Hellec’s second conversion even easier than his first.
