The Brisbane Broncos have launched a powerful counterattack to fend off R360’s audacious poaching attempt for superstar prop Payne Haas, tabling a record-breaking $3.5 million contract extension — a deal set to make him the highest-paid forward in NRL history.
The move comes just days after Haas claimed his sixth Paul Morgan Medal, further cementing his place as the greatest Bronco of all time. The new offer would keep the powerhouse front-rower in Brisbane until the end of 2030, locking down the player who has become the face of the club’s resurgence.
Sources close to the negotiations revealed that rival suitors from the R360 rugby project had been circling Haas with a mammoth cross-code offer reportedly worth more than $4 million. But the Broncos refused to back down, responding with a club-defining deal that underscores Haas’s irreplaceable value — both on and off the field.
Broncos legend Shane Webcke, widely regarded as one of the greatest props in the club’s history, declared that Haas has now “surpassed every front-rower who’s ever worn the jersey.”
“Payne’s not just a great player — he’s a once-in-a-generation forward,” Webcke said. “What sets him apart is his consistency and his mentality. Every week, no matter the opposition, he delivers an 80-minute performance most blokes could only dream of.”
Indeed, Haas’s impact on the Broncos has been nothing short of transformative. His engine, power, and leadership have been the foundation of Brisbane’s rebuild under Kevin Walters. With Haas leading the pack, the Broncos have rediscovered their trademark toughness — and fans are daring to dream of another premiership.
The proposed deal is seen as a statement of intent from the club’s top brass: Brisbane won’t lose its generational leader. CEO Dave Donaghy emphasized that keeping Haas was a “non-negotiable priority.”
“Payne represents everything the Broncos stand for — hard work, loyalty, and excellence,” Donaghy said. “We’re building our future around him.”
As the NRL world reacts to the blockbuster deal, one thing is certain: Payne Haas isn’t just the GOAT of the Broncos — he’s the cornerstone of their next dynasty.
And with $3.5 million on the table, the message from Red Hill is loud and clear: Payne Haas is going nowhere. 💛🐎🔥
