The South Sydney Rabbitohs have been dealt a massive blow on the eve of their clash with the Brisbane Broncos with halfback Adam Reynolds ruled out with a hip injury.

The injury has forced South Sydney coach Michael Maguire into a massive reshuffle of his side with John Sutton set to move to five-eighth from the back row and Cody Walker shifting to halfback.

George Burgess comes into the starting side at prop, pushing Kyle Turner back to the second row. Braidon Burns has also been replaced by Hymel Hunt on the wing. Rookie Cameron Murray is in line to make his NRL debut from the interchange bench.

The Broncos have been forced to make one change of their own with winger Jordan Kahu succumbing to a groin injury. He will be replaced by David Mead, with Jonus Pearson named on the bench.
