The Brisbane Broncos are set to be dealt a massive blow, with the club resigned to losing an international forward due to his complicated relationship with coach Michael Maguire.<\/p>\n

One of 12 Broncos players set to hit the open market on November 1 next season is set to mark Jordan Riki\u2019s last at the club as he considers his long-term future.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Broncos are growing increasingly sceptical that Jordan Riki will stay at the club beyond next season,\u201d reporter Brent Read said on Triple M\u2019s Sunday Sin Bin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s a November 1 guy and in the last year of his deal. <\/p>\n

\u201cOn November 1, he will become available to speak to rival clubs and my understanding is the Broncos are concerned Jordan Riki may leave at the end of next season.\u201d<\/p>\n

The fresh reports come as his testy relationship with Maguire has been described as \u201coil and water\u201d, with the two reportedly not seeing eye-to-eye.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s done. I got told the Jordan Riki and coaching relationship is like oil and water. It doesn\u2019t mix,\u201d Ben Dobbin added. <\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re resigned to the fact that he will be moving on. They are pretty confident that he will go somewhere else <\/p>\n

It is understood that there were whispers of Riki linking up with the Melbourne Storm for the 2028 season, but both camps have denied it.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the New Zealand Warriors have been<\/p>\n

floated up as a potential destination.<\/p>\n

This would see him replace former teammate Kurt Capewell in the back row once the veteran decides to hang up his boots.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the mail I got was the Melbourne Storm, but that has been absolutely categorically denied by people at Melbourne and by the Broncos,\u201d Dobbin said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Broncos said we don\u2019t think he\u2019ll be here, but it won\u2019t be at the Melbourne Storm.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the Warriors are in for Jordan Riki to bring him home.\u201d<\/p>\n
