Reagan Campbell\u2011Gillard is reportedly set to bring his stint with the Gold Coast Titans to an early close in order to join the London Broncos in the Super League.<\/p>\n

This move comes amid a dramatic ownership overhaul at the Broncos, with rugby league great Darren Lockyer and his business partner Grant Wechsel purchasing a majority stake in the club, taking control to spearhead its revival.<\/p>\n

Lockyer and Wechsel are acquiring about 90 per cent of London Broncos, with the remaining share held by current owner Gary Hetherington, who will stay on to run day\u2011to\u2011day operations.<\/p>\n

The London Broncos have formally submitted a bid to rejoin the top\u2011tier Super League from 2026, bolstered by the new ownership group\u2019s commitment to bring financial stability, elite coaching, and marquee talent to the squad.<\/p>\n

Campbell\u2011Gillard\u2019s potential signing is understood to be part of that broader strategy, with the Broncos seeking experienced forwards to lead their pack and big name signings to anchor their push for promotion.<\/p>\n

For Campbell\u2011Gillard, the potential move would mark a major shift: leaving the NRL after a high-profile career to embrace a fresh challenge overseas under ambitious new leadership.<\/p>\n

The 32-year-old has enjoyed a decorated NRL career, beginning with his debut for the Penrith Panthers in 2011, where he quickly established himself as a physically dominant ‘old school’ front rower.<\/p>\n

He moved to the Parramatta Eels in 2015, becoming a cornerstone of their pack and earning selection for New South Wales in State of Origin and for Australia.<\/p>\n

Over his career, Campbell\u2011Gillard has racked up more than 245 NRL appearances and played in finals campaigns for both Penrith and Parramatta.<\/p>\n

Campbell\u2011Gillard joined the Gold Coast Titans ahead of the 2025 season on a three-year deal but struggled to replicate his best form, whilst the Titans had a miserable season finishing second last and terminating coach Des Hasler.<\/p>\n

The London Broncos\u2019 transformation under Lockyer\u2019s ownership is more than just boardroom changes, with plans reportedly in motion for strong grassroots growth, upgraded operations, and sustained investment to make them a competitive force in Super League.<\/p>\n

If finalized, the deal promises to be a marquee signing for the Broncos that could attract further Australian talent, with a roster overhaul badly needed to compete with teams in the Super League and prove the Broncos deserve a spot there.<\/p>\n

Campbell\u2011Gillard\u2019s move to London, if it happens, represents not only a career shift but an opportunity to bring his experience and leadership to a club determined to rebuild and get back to its glory days in the English Super League once again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Reagan Campbell\u2011Gillard is reportedly set to bring his stint with the Gold Coast Titans to an early close…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":148953,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[568],"tags":[64,63,761,762,158,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-148952","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nrl","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-national-rugby-league","11":"tag-nationalrugbyleague","12":"tag-nrl","13":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148952","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=148952"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148952\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/148953"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=148952"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=148952"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=148952"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
