Adam Reynolds has engaged in talks with Brisbane Broncos management to resist the lure of bringing back Sam Walker to the club, underlining the team’s potential to end their 18-year title drought without relying on the Queensland sensation.
The highly anticipated showdown between seasoned halfback Reynolds and rising star Walker is set to headline the Broncos versus Roosters clash at Suncorp Stadium this Friday.
Reynolds staged a remarkable return from injury last week, orchestrating four tries in Brisbane’s commanding 34-10 victory over the Tigers, while Walker delivered a stellar performance in the Roosters’ 60-18 triumph against the Dragons on Anzac Day.
Once considered the future of the Broncos, Walker’s departure to the Roosters in 2019 surprised many. Now, at 21 and approaching free agency status in November, speculation is rife about a potential return to Brisbane to fill Reynolds’ shoes.
Despite acknowledging Walker’s talent, Reynolds believes in the abilities of Ezra Mam, Jock Madden, and young Broncos halfback Coby Black to lead Brisbane to success.
Reynolds expressed his confidence in the team’s existing talent pool, highlighting the need to nurture and develop emerging Broncos players like Mam and Madden.
The experienced halfback is gearing up for a tough clash against Walker’s Roosters, emphasizing the importance of facing top teams like the Roosters.
Despite battling injuries, Reynolds remains steadfast in his commitment to performing his role for the team to the best of his abilities week in and week out.
