Brisbane Broncos captain Adam Reynolds has addressed the club’s pursuit of NRL veteran Ben Hunt while offering candid insights into the situation surrounding embattled teammate Ezra Mam. With the Broncos eyeing Hunt as a potential addition for the 2025 season, Reynolds has expressed his support for the move, labeling Hunt “a great addition” who could bolster the team’s chances in the upcoming campaign.
Reynolds praised Hunt’s skill and experience, calling him a “wonderful player” who could bring leadership and consistency to the Broncos’ lineup. Despite reports suggesting Hunt might favor staying in Sydney with his family, Reynolds remains optimistic about the possibility of his arrival. However, he acknowledged that the Broncos face hurdles, including salary cap constraints, which could make the deal challenging.
Meanwhile, Reynolds addressed Mam’s recent legal troubles, following the young star’s alleged drug driving charge and the fallout that has sidelined him until the new year. While backing Mam to learn from the ordeal, Reynolds expressed hope that the incident would serve as a turning point for the talented five-eighth. “He’s got a great family and support system. I just hope he learns his lesson,” Reynolds said.
As the Broncos navigate a challenging offseason, the potential addition of Hunt and the uncertain timeline for Mam’s return leave key questions unanswered. Could Hunt’s arrival and Mam’s redemption story set the stage for a transformative 2025 campaign?
