Can’t you see him agitating in the picture?

Trent might find him agitating, always begging him to get him out of his Souths contract

They walk, talk and act like winners. You find that with clubs in every sport. Even when they're having 'off' years, you can always be sure that a good one is just around the corner.

Broncos are now looking to sign Reagan Campbell-Gillard. Negotiations between Campbell-Gillard have broken down, Broncos ready to swoop.

Breaking news in the Tele just now

 

[Noitall]

The Broncos have emerged as a shock contender to sign Reagan Campbell-Gillard after the former NSW Origin enforcer’s touted move to the Dragons was on the rocks on Monday night.

This masthead can reveal Campbell-Gillard is on the radar of a Broncos club that launched a wide-ranging review on Monday in the wake of Brisbane’s dramatic freefall to miss the finals this season.

The Parramatta prop’s move to the Dragons was regarded as a fait accompli, but in a stunning twist on Monday night, ructions broke out in Campbell-Gillard’s transfer to the Red V.

The 31-year-old is seeking a three-year deal from a prospective club but the Dragons were only willing to come to the party with a two-year offer.

No formal deal has been struck with St George Illawarra at this stage.

That has opened the door for the Broncos, who are on the hunt for an experienced forward to provide some leadership and partner with star prop Payne Haas in 2025 following Brisbane’s horror 12th-placed finish. The Broncos have also been linked with Storm veteran Christian Welch and Brisbane coach Kevin Walters is understood to be interested in snaring the signature of RCG.

The Broncos will discuss whether to make a formal play for Campbell-Gillard at a meeting on Wednesday.

But any move to Red Hill is contingent on salary-cap restrictions and whether the Broncos can afford Campbell-Gillard, who is on a lucrative deal with the Eels.

Currently on $775,000 this season, it is believed his salary next year drops to around $650,000.

Just turned 31, Campbell-Gillard is contracted to the Eels until the end of next season, but Parramatta have given the bookend permission to negotiate with rival clubs.

Campbell-Gillard’s exit from Parramatta seemed a certainty given the prop had a shot at goal in his side’s 60-26 rout of the Tigers last Friday night in the strongest sign yet he was saying goodbye to the Eels.

Commentators even suggested Dragons fans should celebrate the arrival of Campbell-Gillard, but with his Red V deal suddenly in jeopardy, the Broncos could pull off an eleventh-hour poaching strike. Queensland Origin 2023 debutant Corey Horsburgh rejected a possible move to the Broncos on Monday, honouring his Canberra deal after talks with Raiders coach Ricky Stuart.

The Broncos have given forward Kobe Hetherington permission to negotiate with rival clubs and he would be allowed to leave in 2025 - on the proviso Brisbane receive a player of equal value.

That player could be Campbell-Gillard, a veteran of 221 NRL games who could take the pressure off Haas with his representative experience, toughness and go forward.

Campbell-Gillard and Haas know each other well - they were starting front-rowers for NSW in the opening game of the 2022 State of Origin series.

Walters has vowed to put Brisbane’s roster under the microscope, with the Broncos having sorely missed the front-row intimidation of Dolphins defector Tom Flegler this season.

The Broncos still have one spot left on their 30-man full-time roster, putting RCG and Welch in the frame if Brisbane can strike the right deal

A key South Island signing in a few years time if / when they make the NRL cut?

RCG to the Broncos and I immediately think… excellent give us Willison please!!!

Reality is though.. they are probably replacing Tapau and Hetherington.

They’ve extended Taupau for another year. Apparently they looking at Christian Welsh as well as RCG, definitely think something is going on there

Likely Kevin Walters over reacting which hopefully screws the Broncos salary cap.

Interesting how the media analyses them and their lack of 'hard heads' in their team of youngsters and all of a sudden Kevvie is on the phone to players like Welch and RCG lol

That team looks to be a team full of young cocky players and feels like they will push for payrises every single offcontract year. Let them pay on potential.

Let's hope disaster befalls our enemies and we get Willison out of it

Man Ben Hunt would be a great get for us he wouldn't join us but signing him would put us back towards finals contention he wouldn't have to worry about leadership either
