That's how Frank Napoli got the gig.

As an observer and irregular matchgoer of Broncos games, the latest flurry (well, by Broncos standards it is a flurry) of signings indicates that 2025 is achievable, somehow.

Someone always wants to lower the tone of the conversation by mentioning Francis Napoli.

Jamie O Callaghan too. By the way, is he still around? Just asking.

Very Irish sounding (Connor o Bierne) Aussie back signed from Elite 1. Most of our flair players gone so good to have him signed up. We’ll need a bit of pace so hopefully Boafo retained and then a bit of creative recruitment.

Happy to be corrected but I thought Boafo was on a 2 year deal- or I thought that it had been said on here.

Connor O'beirne is listed as being a scrum half at Lézignan. He's also listed as 1.97m which is 6' 5". It would be very Broncos if our tallest player next season turned out to be a halfback.

I saw him play for Hemel in League One on what I believe was all but his last professional appearance. TBH you wouldn't have picked him out as an ex SL player and I'm not sure his heart was in it. Which msy be why he left soon after?

I heard a whisper he was playing RU for fun after leaving Hemel but cannot confirm that..
