The Brisbane Broncos are considering making a play for disgruntled Souths halfback Adam Reynolds following his contract spat with the Rabbitohs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ahead of Souths' clash with the Broncos at ANZ Stadium tonight, Red Hill officials have openly discussed signing Reynolds, who would serve as a leader in the team, mentoring the side's younger halves.<\/p>\n

It's understood South Sydney have added a year to their initial one year extension to Reynolds<\/a> in their latest offer, but the premiership-winner is still resigned to leaving Souths at season's end.<\/p>\n

The Broncos haven't approached Reynolds' manager Steve Gillis about making the move north and are yet to make a formal contract offer. Reynolds' asking price is $700,000 a season on a two to three year deal but the Broncos would have difficulty meeting his demands with their current salary cap situation.<\/p>\n

If off-contract star Kotoni Staggs chooses to leave the club for the Titans, the Broncos could have the space to make a play.<\/p>\n

Brisbane is due to make a decision on their halves with Anthony Milford and Tom Dearden both off-contract, while halfback Brodie Croft's three-year deal at Brisbane expires at the end of 2022.<\/p>\n

Brisbane coach Kevin Walters told News Corp he's reluctant to chase Reynolds if that means losing Dearden to the Cowboys.<\/p>\n

"We're always in the market. Every club is on the lookout if players become available," Walters said.<\/p>\n

"We will be looking, but right now we're trying to re-sign four or five of our junior players.<\/p>\n

"There's a big, bad world out there in the player market and my job is to coach the side.<\/p>\n

"We've got other people in our organisation to look after those areas."<\/p>\n

Incoming Souths coach Jason Demetriou, has appealed for Reynolds to stay at the club.<\/p>\n

"I've spoken to Adam, I want him to stay and hopefully finish his career at Souths," Demetriou said.<\/p>\n

"This (contract talk) is part of the game, so it's a process we are all going through.<\/p>\n

"Adam's been great with his attitude. Our focus this year is winning a premiership and Adam is committed to that as much as anyone at the club."<\/p>\n
