Every year, NRL players partake in a game of musical chairs, swapping chairs and switching jerseys as each club looks to build a premiership-winning roster for next season.

Some clubs grow stronger, some fall away, even Penrith who are built on their junior system were forced to recruit from outside. Every single side has a weakness they're looking to cover, a hole in their outfit.

So which player will change your club's fortunes in 2023? A superstar or a young gun, a toiler or someone flashy?

Here is every club's biggest signature for the upcoming NRL season.

7. Manly Sea Eagles

Kelma Tuilagi

Another member of the Samoan World Cup side, Tuilagi was virtually unknown until this season, bursting onto the scene despite the Wests Tigers woes.

Playing in 22 of 24 games this year at club level, Josh Schuster's move into five-eighth will open up a starting spot for Tuilagi on the left edge, and form a dynamite back-row combination with Haumole Olakau'atu.

Running off Schuster's no-look passes and the likes of Tom Trbojevic and Reuben Garrick running around his outside, expect 2023 to be a big one for Kelma.

  1. Oregon Kaufusi is the only “name” player Cronulla has bought, but Kevin Iro’s son, Kayal, has more potential to show some X-factor for the Sharks.
