Well he still has a contract & I can't see the Broncos letting him leave.
I haven’t seen any of the stories that the media are running on Payne tonight but 1m/5yr deal imo is the best outcome for both the club and player.
I will say one thing, the Broncos better deal with this negotiation delicately. Payne is and has been the heart and soul of this squad for at least the past two seasons. He has been underpaid (yes he signed a contract with those figures) but a lot of shit has gone down at the club since he signed that. Add to that he has seen plodders like Milford cash in 1m every year.
1m could end up a bargain if he continues his rise and the last thing we want to have to do in 12-18 month is risk paying even bigger $ to keep him here. You can just about guarantee that he could get close to 1mill a year at a top 4 club.
He is something special, whatever you do Brisbane, do not **** this one.
1m for a prop is uncharted territory, I get it.Yeah he’s good but $1 million is not a bargain for any forward. Would a combination of say Welch and Mo be worth less than a Haas? You could get both for Haas’s million. No prop is a bargain at 1 million.
1m for a prop is uncharted territory, I get it.
But as is the player, Haas is an exception to the rule.
The way the board have performed the last couple of years I am not confident they will get this right.I haven’t seen any of the stories that the media are running on Payne tonight but 1m/5yr deal imo is the best outcome for both the club and player.

Would prefer donuts and ikin handled this despite the big dollars involved.
Haas: Last Week Showed What Both Teams Are Capable Of
Payne Haas talks about what to expect from this week's XXXX Derby against rivals the North Queensland Cowboys.www.broncos.com.au
Payne didn't look too happy.
Certainly doesn't seem happy that TPJ was let go.
A lot of talk about NRL being a business.
Worrying.
True, but since managers think based on their cut a $100,000 a year income if the Broncos come to the table is better than $70,000 a year to leave. This is just a letter from his manager saying he's gone unless you pay the $1 mill. It is how I would do it especially as everyman and his blind dog can see that he is the life of our party.If Payne wants to leave, then i highly doubt his manager would have proposed a career long contract ... it's not like he'd have to worry about either the money side of things or the length of the contract. Payne will get a big money long term contract at any club.
