THE Broncos have added more depth to their forward rotation with the acquisition of giant prop Rhys Kennedy.

At 197cms, the 24-year-old becomes the tallest player in the Broncos’ NRL squad.

He joins the Broncos effective immediately after being released by the Rabbitohs to take up a deal that will run through until the end of the 2020 season.

A middle forward, Kennedy spent three years in the Melbourne Storm system and also had a couple of seasons in the Canberra Raiders’ NRL squad.

But season 2019 has been a break-through year for him after making his NRL debut with the South Sydney Rabbitohs back in round three against the Gold Coast Titans.

He played NRL as recently as the last round for the Rabbitohs against the Panthers.

At 110 kilograms, the rangy prop will have his first training run with the Broncos at the Clive Berghofer Centre this morning.
