Hull KR have also played eleven games so far this season and are currently sat in 5th place after winning 7 (0-22 vs Hull FC, 22-12 vs Leeds Rhinos, 12-24 vs Huddersfield Giants, 34-10 vs Hull FC, 50-10 vs London Broncos, 26-10 vs Wigan Warriors & 40-20 vs St Helens Saints) and losing 4 (17-10 vs Salford Red Devils, 20-22 vs Warrington Wolves, 36-6 vs Catalans Dragons & 20-8 vs Warrington Wolves) games so far this season.


Speaking ahead of our Round 11 clash on Sunday, Hull KR head coach Willie Peters says "I think that this week will be a good game for us. What we need is a professional & clinical performance.

”If you look at when we played London here (Craven Park) we had a good first half and then it was a 10-6 score line in the second half. For us it’s about staying in games for longer periods.

 

“It’s a good opportunity to play against a team which has nothing to lose and off their first win will be confident so there’s no doubt they’ll throw a lot at us”.

 

Also ahead of this Sunday’s fixture, we caught up with Broncos assistant coach Jordie Hedges, who says “Well let ourselves down that first game (vs Hull KR) especially in the first half so we are looking to put a few things right from that game.


“The second half showed that we could do it. We put ourselves in a much better position but obviously you can’t afford to let teams get ahead like that and especially Hull KR.


“We’re looking forward to an 80 minute performance which we can put in against these boys.”


Broncos’ media also caught up with new permanent signing Ugo Tison who was speaking about the rest of the season with the Broncos. Tison says “I’m very excited because it’s been a long time coming and after picking up that injury it has been a long road to recovery.


“My English is improving day after day; I speak often with the boys so it has been good for me!


“I’ve played four good games, more minutes than for the Dragons which is good for me, and I want to stay here and play week after week.


“It’s difficult for sure because of my family and the Dragons is my club but I need to take a big decision, so I choose to stay here and play more. It’s a big move”.

by Jake Watson • 31 March 2025
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.

MATCH REPORT: London Broncos 26-6 Hunslet RLFC

by Jake Watson • 30 March 2025
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.
