Thats a huge vote of confidence from both sides. Seems they feel last year was merely a blip and with no more monied teams working through the pyramid that promotion spot will be up for grabs if they can generate income. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Phantom Horseman Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 33 minutes ago, dkw said: Newcastle signed Mitch Clark, while workington have signed Evan Simons from Newcastle. A perfectly reasonable signing of a solid journeyman, fair enough in today's tricky market for middles. Alternatively, if you're Mick Gledhill on Twitter, "a huge statement of intent from the club in their quest to reach the Super League". 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Cashmere Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Leigh, Newcastle, York, Featherstone and Halifax all look likely to be assembling squads capable of winning promotion. Feel York have a really good chance if they can keep O'Hagan, Brinning and Pauli fit all season; Newcastle's pack looks very strong on paper; I like Leigh's focus on younger players but the jury is out until the new coach is appointed; Fev have the quality in the backs and Fax might have the best halves pairing in the comp. It really should be a brilliant season. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lot of lads on edge of SL teams who decided they wanted to win something over being a backup. Cant imagine Newcastle being outside playoffs at this rate.

crashmon Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 (edited) And as Thunder add another SL quality signing, at the other end of the country, the Broncos quest to build a L1 squad to play in the Championship continues apace Welcome Rob Tuliatu.

I think O'Hagan will be the best half in the comp provided he can keep himself fit but that remains to be seen. Nu Brown is a big loss for Fev and I'm not sold on Leigh or Thunder's lot. As I say, Fax *may* have the best halves pairing in the comp. I'm not saying it's clear cut. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POR Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 It makes me laugh people going on about best this best that i the championship and I couldn't careless who has the alleged best halfback pairing in the competition but when it comes to halfbacks FEV have got chisolm homes and smith who are all out of the top drawer so that will do for me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The favourites will need a coach capable of having a go in SL because the inexperienced nice guy has little chance as we have found out. His next move is to back himself as a SL number 2 if he has ambition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it must be a cunning plan to get into SL2 by winning the L1 shield in 2023 although signing skolars and WWR players won't get Broncos in the L1 playoffs, let alone survival in Championship.If they want to win L1 2023 they going to need better players that those they signing now Palumbo's last clubs are listed below. I think the question is not so much will London get relegated next year, but how many games will they win?
