Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I listened to the NRL360 discussion on Broncos Halves Headache - Is re-signing Reynolds the right move?

Anasta's answer - at the right price to me was the best answer. Also suggestions are if he is re-signed it is to a modest contract.

Also when Reynolds was asked about a new contract and WTs, a smile passed across his face.

Paws i thought that Reynolds resigning with Broncos was just Richo looking after a mate.

Not sold on us needing Reynolds in 26, yes for 600k max for 1 year, no for any more than that. Instead maybe get Luai and Latu a kicking coach from the AFL...he can also teach Skelton and Turuva how to take a mark.

Agreed. The guy is busted. I can see this panning out like Matt Ballin. [This word has been automatically removed] that.

Same with Api. Don’t lose TDS to save a guy who may only have two years left and wants to go to Perth.
 
Where does the talk of Reynolds being busted come from. Played 13 games this year and yes he only played 13 the in 2024 but before that had played over 20 games every year for the past 7 years. If you only have 1 season significantly affected by injury in 9 years that seems durable to me

Bro Matt Ballin I’m pretty sure has the most games consecutively played of all time. As was the case when we signed him. Then, kaput. This guy already has chronic injuries. We got burnt by Olam as well much like Matulino and all the other over the hill guys.

Fark off Reynolds. Plus I would endorse Latu for leaving. Why sit behind this prick.

He had a clear role to play and did a decent job as the link man. Also coming on in the last 20mins when it was obvious Parra had run out of steam is not really anything to hang your hat on. Wait till he has to create or is playing without Critta outside of him. Parra should have thrown more attack down his side yet were starved of the ball and Critta was there to cover in any case. What I found interesting is Sextons comment about being surprised he was told to go to 9, looks like Galvin may have been promised Sextons role even though all the talk has been he is happy to play anywhere, and it sounds like that is what they are selling the team as well which we all know is BS.

Interested to see how often Sexton is told to fill in for Marny. Wonder if hooker is going to be his new role until he goes.

Quick thought…

TDS one year loan deal to English Super League for 2026.

We subsidise so he goes on really good money, gets the game time, has a life experience, comes back in 2027 when API is ready to play off the bench

Could send him to another club in the N.R.L like Harry Grant. Bring him back after one season.
 
Adam Reynolds and Jarome Luai as a combination just fits perfectly in terms of balance and fit.

Even if it’s for one season…. It’ll be like Aidan Seizer on steroids.

Seems to me the goal is for Latu Fainu to play 13 moving forward which I personally love for him. His tackling and tackle breaking ability, with his ball skills and strong running game makes it a no brainer.

Get Reynolds for 2026…… then throw the cheque book at Luke Metcalf to come back home to Sydney in 2027.

Personally hope Reynolds stays in Brisbane, we just need to keep going with developing Latu and Luai as a combination.

Latu playing first receiver at lock, with Luai at second receiver then Bula potentially polishing those sets off.

Plug in the experience of Reynolds to guide us around the park - also has an exceptional goal kicking game.

I think it’s a perfect formula.

I personally just think Latu at first receiver gives us so much, he sets the tone for the play. If you don’t respect his running game and give him space he can cut right through you, however if you let him get to close he can straighten the line up and ball play perfectly to create space out wide. He’d be a defensive nightmare for forwards to read, a threat both ways.

He also has history playing at 9 for Tonga as well, so he has proven he’s more than capable handling the middle defensively.

Happy either way tbh. I wouldn’t be disappointed if got the 6 jersey as well.
