London Broncos have locked in their squad numbers for the upcoming 2024 Super League season, with seven new recruits among 26 handed a shirt in the capital.
Mike Eccles led the Broncos to a shock promotion in 2023 via the Championship play-offs, and they are now preparing for a first season in the top flight since 2019.
Of those seven new additions made so far, only one has come from a fellow Super League club, that being Rhys Kennedy following his departure from Hull KR. The Australian forward takes number 19 ahead of the new campaign.
France international Hakim Miloudi – who previously donned a Hull FC shirt – joined London earlier this week from the French Elite Championship, and will wear number 4.
Elsewhere, both Josh Rourke and James Meadows have been brought in from Championship outfit Batley Bulldogs, with the latter returning to the Broncos having already made 37 appearances for the club between 2018 and 2021.
That pair will take numbers 23 and 7 respectively this year, while three-time Papua New Guinea international Emmanuel Waine will don number 18 as he heads into a second season at Plough Lane having arrived from PNG Hunters ahead of 2023.
Waine will be one of nine PNG internationals in Super League in 2024, with the Kumuls contingent continuing to grow.
