Apparently so.
All the championship sides want to draw Broncos.
Not for the gate, but for the result.

No matter how bad we currently are, no team outside of Super League would beat us..... Especially the Skolars

Decent 40 minutes v Warrington, and maybe a challenge cup win will help confidence.
Obviously you'll beat any Championship One side, and most Championship sides.
Even if the best of Featherstone, Leigh, Sheffield, Halifax etc would have to play well to beat a full time (although) quickly assembled Bronco's side.

I fear for what Leeds will do to us

I think we will struggle to make the top 4 of the championship next year with this squad less the imports.....that's how bad they are

Having seen Skolars at Oxford I'd be tempted to put my mortgage on Broncos beating them. Potentially a solid C1 team but not one that would live with any SL team, even a very poor one.

Last season you Guys stuffed Sheffield at their place, probably their only home defeat in 2013. I am a Leigh Centurions fan, would like to play London in the Challenge Cup, BUT I wouldn't be too confident. We nearly lost at Keighley, doubt Bronco's would have.

A 4 day turnaround for us when we play you. Failing that, Catalan at home? I'm certain you will wins game.

Castleford will win by 30, Catalans by 20 whilst Leeds and st hens will score 120 points between them......

Being a Cas fan (for more years than I wish to reveal) I too share Towns concern for our match with the Broncos, the fact of a 4 day turnaround is a big ask. To see the predicament that the Broncos are in is sad for any TRUE fan of TGG, I've been to London to support the Tigers and it has usually been a close game (the two last minute draws ). I still cannot come to terms of how this situation has arisen can have continued (I'll never forget The Valley, sunny day, 5000 cas fan travelled for a Fiver, kids activities outside the ground, beer food) generally everything the fans required. Reading the Broncos forum does not mean I'm suffering from a sad case of Schadenfreude, just a genuine case of concern that if things continue there is a real danger of the Broncos folding before the season end....................who in their right minds conceived the idea of Broncos on TV v's Leeds plus again on TV on Thursday evening against Cas Surely drastic action is required at all levels, your coach must go (we did it with Mildred), we got our CEO Tricky Dicky Wright to stand down and instilled in the player PRIDE in the black and amber and have never looked back. All the Cas fans wanted was commitment, passion and pride, if we got beat and the these were shown that's all you could ask for from the players..........................I understand the millstones around your necks BUT IMO something drastic is required, WHO can deliver this, I couldn't say but the status quo can't continue for the good of the Broncos Just to say as NORTHERN SOUL fanatic Keep The Faith, just look at this clip (NOT gloating) but just to see what joy the fans get when things cam only get better https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWMWy9FWeDw&feature=player_embedded Yours in sport KTF THH

Nice post, but London are always going to be in a different boat than Cas. Cas might struggle, but nobody would ever argue that Cas would cease to exist, or that there were no fans willing to support Cas, or that RL would die out in Cas. In other words, even when the present is uncertain, in Cas, there's always the certainty of a future of some sort.

Broncos are different. There's not just uncertainty over the future, there's a very credible probability that the future of the club is about 8 months long, full stop. That's a pretty tough sell, even to pro players. And that's before any discussion of the actual quality of those players which would cast doubt on their ability to win any games even if they were highly motivated and confident.

Broncos' only hope of not finishing bottom is if Bradford don't win another game all season. They have no hope at all of not finishing in the bottom two. It's curtains.
