Broncos missing vital Steele

London Broncos will be without captain Steele Retchless for their first Super League home game of the new season.

The tough-tackling forward, who also missed last week's 48-6 drubbing at Leeds, will miss tomorrow night's game against Wigan.

He has returned to Australia to be with his wife, who gave birth on Monday.

Another key player, hooker Jason Hetherington, is struggling with a hip injury and faces a late fitness test.

Coach Tony Rea said: "We played poorly at Leeds but that doesn't make us a bad side and we learnt a few lessons.
