Hetherington to London Broncos LOL.

Didn't see that one coming

It's about as likely as some of the rumours on here. But it's good he is helping them find some new investors.

Good to see the Brisbane Broncos looking to invest in London. They've done brilliantly in the face of huge odds in their last two seasons in SL. The potential is there if properly harnessed.

Whatever anyone thinks about Gary Hetherington,and that net is cast far and wide, and to fans of all SL clubs.
He has the very best interests of the game in this hemisphere, both in his head and also in his heart with all of the clubs in our competition.
By comparison, how many SL chairmen could be describes as being only interested in their own clubs?
Personally speaking, I would love to see a very strong and successful SL club in London and if Gary can help broker that deal,then good on him

After 8 years of serial underperformance, I trust the club is being paid a consultancy fee for our CEO to do this work rather than concentrate on turning around our ongoing failure.

Only Wakefield, Castleford, Leigh, and Hull can bid for any Salford players at the moment, but that may change after the next meeting on Wednesday.

Pretty sure I read an interview with Burgess to the effect the wolfs are in the market too. Though it sounds like there may be some sort of dispensation drawn up

I've been to a few RL literature events, usually as part of Ilkley Lit Fest. I think I have seen GH at every one, but no other chairmen. That says everything about his passion for the game.
