Every year, NRL players partake in a game of musical chairs, swapping chairs and switching jerseys as each club looks to build a premiership-winning roster for next season.

Some clubs grow stronger, some fall away, even Penrith who are built on their junior system were forced to recruit from outside. Every single side has a weakness they're looking to cover, a hole in their outfit.

So which player will change your club's fortunes in 2023? A superstar or a young gun, a toiler or someone flashy?

Here is every club's biggest signature for the upcoming NRL season.

16. Sydney Roosters

Brandon Smith

Who else other than the hectic cheese himself?

While 2022 wasn't kind to Smith on the field, it's easy to forget he was the Dally M Hooker of the Year just 12 months earlier, and will form an absolute dynamite spine alongside James Tedesco, Sam Walker and Luke Keary.

His days as a middle forward are likely over, his running game combined with some real agile and fleet-footed forwards is going to make the Roosters one of the biggest premiership threats this season.
