The Brisbane Broncos' signing of Souths halfback Adam Reynolds is potentially the beginning of a spending splurge.

The addition of Reynolds for the 2022 season is a huge boost for the battling Broncos, who currently sit 14th on the ladder.

An out-of-form Anthony Milford and the loss of two of their young stars Xavier Coates and Tom Dearden has pushed the club to search for new talent to assist the club's potential re-build.

With a severe lack of depth in the Broncos backline, more specifically in the back field, Fox League's James Hooper believes that fellow South Sydney teammates Jaydn Su'A and Dane Gagai are on the Broncos' radar, along with Panthers second rower Kurt Capewell and Melbourne Storm fullback Nicho Hynes.

โ€œThey have a number of gun players on the radar,โ€ Hooper told NRL360.

โ€œA couple of his South Sydney teammates in Dane Gagai and Jaydn Suโ€™A. Also Kurt Capewell from the Penrith Panthers and Nicho Hynes from the Melbourne Storm.

โ€œI think they will get one of either Gagai or Suโ€™A, just not certain which one yet. There is a suggestion Suโ€™A might want to return home to Brisbane for family reasons.

โ€œThey land one of them and a couple of other key signatures and itโ€™s a brand new ball game for Brisbane.โ€

Hooper reported that Su'A could be a favourite for the struggling Brisbane side as there is room to believe that he may want to return to Brisbane for family reasons.

Paul Kent shares a similar viewpoint to James Hooper, however, has strongly iterated to invest in the youth reporting that, "the priority for the Broncos should be Nicho Hynes."

"They've got some good outside backs coming through and they've already got plenty of strike on the edges. Nicho Hynes needs to be the priority."

  1. Rumour has it they are trying to swap Matt Lodge for David Klemmer. I think that would be a great deal. I think Hynes is a smart move cause the storm canโ€™t offer him the fullback role or much money which the broncos can use to their advantage.

    As for the other ideas Iโ€™m not the biggest fan. Kurt Capewell would be good if heโ€™s not to expensive. But Suโ€™a and Gagai would both cost quite abit. Alternatively, I think Staggs should stay in the centres, and instead throw Corey Norman or Aiden Sezer a cheap deal. Both have good running games, kicking games and more experience. Then get some cheap back ups like Tevita Funa, Billy Walters and Bunty Afoa.

    1. Hynes
    2. Issako
    3. Farnworth
    4. Staggs
    5. Oates/Funa
    6. Norman/Sezer
    7. Reynolds
    8. Klemmer
    9. Turpin
    10. Haas
    11. Capewell
    12. Pangai Jr
    13. Carrigan

    14. Walters/Paix
    15. Fleger
    16. Bullemor
    17. Riki/Piakura

    In Reynolds you have one of the best goal kickers in the game, you have a more experienced spine which poses a real threat. In the middle you two big impressive props to lay the platform.
    On the left edge you will get targeted but Capewell will help cover, on the right you have Reynolds Staggs Pangai Jr and Oates/Funa which posses loads of size and power.
