This whole saga is dying down. in interview Haas genuinely looks like he loves the club and doesn't want to leave, so in come David Riccio to save the day and stoke the flames:
“This one’s a little concerning if I’m a Broncos fan,” Riccio said on
SEN 1170 Breakfast.
“You just know it’s going to rear its head as soon as the final whistle blows for the Broncos this season.
“It’s a major issue within that football club in relation to whether Payne Haas remains at the Broncos.
“If I’m a Broncos fan I’m not too confident, I feel like there’s movement here.
“We’ve heard recently about European Rugby for Payne Haas, honestly that’s just pie in the sky stuff to try and create tension and the prospect that hey, ‘You better come to the party Broncos or we’re looking at other options’.”
“It’s never a good indication,” Riccio said.
“The catch will be which club can afford him next year.
“A lot of clubs will just make room, they’ll just make room for people like Payne Haas.
“We’re sitting on a landmine here where it’s going to explode post-season big time.”
