I have had the same opinion for a long time.

Just because he gets through a shit load of work and a big engine doesn't mean that's actually a positive impact for the side.

In fact what it actually does it leaves other players in the side out of doing the dirty work and not being involved.

I think he does too much and gets in the way of their attack and providing a point of difference. It’s all well and good that he makes yards but you know where he’s going to be you know he’s not going to create a break and he tends to get ball in good position, I felt a couple of occasions last night. It could’ve gone to someone else for a better result.

Payne Haas is the best forward in the game and of course you want him, provided it doesn’t impact your spine and the sprinkling of glam backrowers, centres or wingers.

You’d have to have access to significant legit 3rd party cash to snare him or offer him a pub or a block of flats in Coogee.

Haas is a very good player, but does he have "leadership" skills? I reckon only players that do, are worth $1 million or so plus a season.

Not sure, if he does or not...if so, he is worth a crack.

I could see him at: Rooster, Storm, Dogs, Rabbitohs or he could stay at Broncos. He probably wants to win a premiership so can't see him staying at the Broncos for that reason.

Yeah...nah. My only concern is the advantage rule. As far as I'm concerned if a team gets the ball from an opposing team's mistake then drops it after they pass the ball then that's on them.
Thankfully they are applying almost a free play rule rather than an advantage. Like extreme advantage rule. That’s one facet of play were we are likely to see heads up play - which I hope we continue to encourage because everyone agrees there is way too much heads down play.
In actual fact coaches should be judged harshly if their players have a low success rate taking advantage of such a play.

100% and his Manager is doing this now and not after November 1 because Broncos are currently working out how much to offer Adam Reynolds to go around again. His manager is warning them not to spend too much of the pot.
You loving what Madge is doing at the Broncos atm
