Match Report: Crusaders

Broncos take home a record-breaking victory against North Wales with a score of 0-134

London Broncos produced a clinical attacking display on Saturday as they recorded a 134-0 victory over Crusaders, a result that has entered the record books as the highest winning margin and the most tries scored in a match across the top two tiers of professional rugby league since the sport's formation in 1895.


While the achievement is a significant milestone for the club, the team will be keen to focus on the standards and performance that delivered the result, while acknowledging the efforts of a Crusaders side that continued to compete throughout a challenging afternoon.


The Broncos crossed for 25 tries in total, with centre Brandon Webster-Mansfield leading the way with a five-try performance that earned him Player of the Match honours. The outside back was a constant threat throughout, finishing off a number of slick attacking movements and demonstrating the clinical edge that has become a feature of his game.


The foundations for the victory were laid early. After Emarly Bitungane opened the scoring, Morea Morea added the first of his four tries before Neil Tchamambe's electric break down the edge inside the opening ten minutes stretched the lead to 18-0 and gave the Broncos early momentum.


From there, the visitors continued to play with pace and precision. Dean Hawkins and Finley Glare added further scores before Webster-Mansfield opened his account. Ben Hursey-Hord, Teddy Davidson and Morea all crossed before the interval as the Broncos built a commanding lead through disciplined execution and strong support play.


Despite holding a comfortable advantage at the break, London maintained their intensity after the restart. Webster-Mansfield added four more tries to complete his five-try haul, while Tchamambe finished with four tries of his own. Morea's four-try contribution, along with scores from Luke Smith, Gairo Voro, Connor O'Beirne, Sadiq Adebiyi and Jimmy Meadows, reflected the collective nature of the performance.


The Broncos' kicking game also contributed significantly to the final tally, with Voro landing 10 conversions before Meadows added a further nine.


While the final scoreline will attract attention, JD will undoubtedly be pleased with the professionalism shown by his side throughout the 80 minutes. The Broncos continued to play to their structures, supported one another defensively and maintained their standards despite the scoreboard.


Record-breaking victories are rare in any sport, and the result will take its place in rugby league history. However, for the Broncos, the focus remains firmly on continuing the unbeaten season and building momentum  towards the Semi-Final in the 1895 Cup next weekend.


There were standout individual performances across the park, but this was ultimately a team effort, with contributions coming throughout the squad. Webster-Mansfield's five tries may have earned the headlines but the result was built on a collective commitment to playing the Broncos way from the first whistle to the last.


The club would also like to thank the travelling supporters for their backing and congratulate the players and staff on a memorable day that will be remembered as a historic chapter in London Broncos history.

London Broncos Sign Toby King on Two-Year Deal from 2027  London Broncos are delighted to confirm the signing of experienced Super League centre Toby King on a two-year contract from 2027. The 29-year-old joins the club from Warrington Wolves and becomes a significant addition to the Broncos' squad as the club continues its push towards Super League. King arrives in London with an outstanding rugby league pedigree. A Challenge Cup winner, League Leaders' Shield winner and Super League Grand Final winner, he has established himself as one of the competition's most consistent and experienced outside backs over the past decade. Since making his Super League debut in 2014, King has made more than 200 Super League appearances and scored over 75 tries. He was named in the Super League Dream Team in 2020 and has represented England, England Knights and Ireland at the international level. During his successful career, he has featured in multiple Challenge Cup Finals and Grand Finals, while also playing a key role in Wigan Warriors' 2023 Super League title-winning campaign. The signing represents another statement of intent from the London Broncos as the club continues to build a squad capable of competing at the highest level of the game. Grant Wechsel, London Broncos Owner "We are delighted to welcome Toby to London Broncos." "When we look at the type of players we want at this club, Toby fits the profile perfectly. He brings proven Super League quality, leadership, professionalism and a winning mentality developed over more than a decade at the top level." "As we continue building for the future, attracting players of Toby's calibre demonstrates the ambition of this club. We believe London Broncos belong in Super League, and Toby's decision to join us is another strong endorsement of the direction we are heading. "There is a huge opportunity ahead of us, and we are excited that Toby has chosen to be part of that journey." Jason Demetriou, Head Coach "Toby is a player who has consistently performed at Super League level, played in big games, won major honours and understands what it takes to compete at the top end of the competition." "What excites me most is that he still has plenty of good rugby ahead of him. He brings experience, competitiveness and quality to our outside backs, but he will also have a big influence on the younger players within our environment." "As we continue to strengthen the squad, Toby is exactly the type of person and player we want at London Broncos and we're thrilled to have secured him for the next two years." London Broncos would like to thank Warrington Wolves for their professionalism throughout this process and wish Toby all the very best for the remainder of his time at the Halliwell Jones Stadium.
