OFFICIAL Payne Haas to depart Broncos at the end of 2026

As he should be based on his potential to influence a game. Haas is a luxury purchase with a lot of baggage with his contracts and team and family. A luxury purchase Brisbane can now afford due to having an established and performing spine, let’s see how Souths digest their purchase in 2027.

Not every top, luxury purchase player in sport though acts entitled.
 
CM just released an article from Payne himself where he confirms that this had nothing to do with Madge or the Broncos and basically said he has no idea where people get this stuff from, we just won a premiership together. Said the decision is purely family based as he has a bigger support network in Sydney and felt like he needed to be a leader for his family and make the move to Sydney.

I'm sure all the scumbag journos and fans that have insisted it was issues with Madge or low-balling etc. will just say this is spin because heaven forbid they have some accountability for once in their miserable lives.

Like he hasnt had support from the Broncos when he was losing his license for bad driving, or driving without a license and getting caught on his phone, or not cooperating with investigations into his scumbag family, or threatening a police woman with violence and being abusive towards other cops, or fighting a team mate because he stepped on his shoe. We have backed him while other players have been booted out of clubs for less.

Pity he didnt piss off to his family in Sydney years ago. He's lucky we stood by him.
 
lol wot? It's some 1950's energy that people still thinking messenging is not a valid form of communication for this type of thing.

I do think when you have been around a club for so long, its not much to ask for such a big statement in person. I think generally, messaging is fine.
 
Likely this was the best they could do considering where they are currently.

Payne video/statement and DD on radio was as good as it was going to get to get it out quickly.

For a bloke that loves the club, he's not showing much emotion in that video about leaving. I remember when Ruben Neves left Wolves, he pretty much broke down in his goodbye video as he had a genuine love for the club.
 
Jeez I'm already sick to the back teeth of all the BS that's being trotted out. That oxygen thief Crawley reckons we have no depth and need to buy ?? and, because Reyno's hanging up his boots at the end of this season, he's stolen the phrase "last dance" from Netflix suggesting that losing those 2 guys sounds the death knell for the Broncs and cruels any chance of going back-to-back. Then .. o'course .. every other media hack grabs onto the phrase to ensure that the drama goes on and on. Pathetic people, the same ones who wrote us off half way through last season then called us lucky. At least Rothfield's been put out to pasture. Thanks for listening guys .. just needed to vent my spleen.

Cmon man that is nonsense.
You don't drop bombs on people that are important to you like this.
You dont have to tell the world, but how you reckon his supposed best mate Patty feels finding stuff like this out after the fact and through an app?
 
I thought that I read somewhere middle of last year that his mum was trying to get moved down to a Sydney jail. Not 100% sure, but I believe that she is going through Mental Health Court rather than a normal Court. If that's the case she'll probably be granted a transfer. Her lawyers are also Sydney based, and that's what they were using a reason for the requested transfer. I think Payne has been thinking about this move for alot longer than we realised.
The lawyer's name? Bayne Wennett.
 
all the best to payne he helped the team out a lot during dark times, but i really really hope souths have a few uber shit seasons and wayne slinks off into BFG retirement in shame with his prized receptionist dale

a petty old ****wit hypocrite of a man

Definitely not just him and Kent either.

It's the weekend, there's no training, all of the other players have lives and are doing their own thing.

He wanted to break the news to them first instead of waiting until they could all be together and they already know from finding out in the media.. I don't think they all would have been available to drop everything for an impromptu meeting.

Don't see the issue. People making it a far bigger deal than it is.
 
The video of Haas posted on our official socials at least provides comfort around the harmony of the group, his relationship with Madge and his commitment to the team for 2026.

I feel a lot more comfortable with our ability to go back-to-back than I did 72 hours ago.
 
Vossy had his say this morning on SEN.
After spending a fair bit of time with the Broncos, for the foxsport show The Fan, including time with the playing group that wasn't allowed to be filmed or recorded he said he could see nothing that made him think the playing group was divided in any way or off the coach in any way.
He saw a totally united happy group.
Amazing though how many others still want to push the Madge is off with the players, like it's impossible for a career coach to learn from mistakes and make adjustments.
