Speaking ahead of this Sunday’s fixture, we caught up with Broncos assistant coach Jordie Hedges, who says “It’s another massive game for us. It’s a massive occasion for the club back at the Stoop trying to connect with an old fanbase as well as with the new fanbase.


“This is a game that we need to go out and win and put a performance in but we understand the magnitude of this for the club as well.


“It’ll be a similar game (from last time out). Conditions aren’t looking great but hopefully we get some dry footy so we can play with the ball a bit”.


Broncos’ media also caught up with Broncos half-back Oli Leyland who says “We’re feeling good, we’ve had a good training week, so we’ve dusted down and ready to go again after some good training.


“Where we’re at and where the team are at is we just need to work on us and focus on approaching every game the same way. Obviously, we’ll have a look at what they’re going to throw at us but for us it’s the same process every week of trying to better ourselves.


“The first game that I went to watch with the Broncos was at the Stoop after a mini’s tournament so you could say that is the start of our journey so to then go and play where I watched my first game will be massive.”

EMILIA'S BIG DAY It's not long now until we welcome Emilia and DKMS to The Cherry Red Records Stadium for her big day! - London Broncos will host ‘Emilia’s Big Day’ to celebrate young cancer survivor whose life was saved by a stem cell donor. - Supporters can join the stem cell donor register with a simple mouth swab - This is part of a partnership with DKMS : inspired by lifelong rugby league fan whose baby son needed a stem cell transplant. ‘Emilia’s Big Day’ is a major peak in a partnership between Broncos and DKMS, which encourages rugby fans to become potential lifesavers by joining the stem cell donor register. Emilia Mackay, 7, was just 5 years old when she was diagnosed with aplastic anaemia, a rare and life-threatening blood disorder, and required weekly blood and platelet transfusions just to survive. Doctors said that she needed a stem cell transplant, but unfortunately, no one in her family was a match, so a global search began to find a stranger who could save her life. Emilia’s dad, James Mackay, says, “As a parent, my child being diagnosed with such a serious illness was my worst nightmare. When we knew that Emilia’s future would rely on someone from the stem cell donor register, it was terrifying.” Fortunately for Emilia, a stranger in Germany had signed up to the DKMS donor register and was identified as a match. They agreed to donate their stem cells, which were then flown to the UK before being quickly transferred to the hospital where Emilia was being cared for. Emilia is now in remission, and since her transplant at the end of 2023, she has been thriving. James says, “Emilia’s donor changed everything for us. It’s obviously very emotional; the kindness of a random stranger means that my daughter has been given another chance at life. We’re so happy that she is well enough to do the things she loves, and that we can attend rugby games as a family. We are so excited for the event with Broncos and DKMS -- we won’t just be celebrating Emilia, we’ll also be adding more people to the register so that more patients like her can get a second chance at life”.
