He won the Dally M Rookie of the Year and Prop of the Year awards in 2019.
Though his star track record is overshadowed by previous controversies.
Haas copped a $20,000 fine and four-game suspension in 2019.
The punishment came after he failed to cooperate with an NRL Integrity Unit investigation into an incident involving his family.

Fifita was detained by Indonesian police and Haas was cleared by the NRL of any wrongdoing.
