Sport confidential can reveal Staggs wants to stay long-term and will only test his value on the open market if he can’t strike a new deal at Red Hill in the coming weeks. The clock is ticking for the Broncos to secure the centre before he is eligible for free agency on November 1.
It is understood the Broncos have yet to table a new deal for Staggs, giving Brisbane seven weeks to upgrade the flyer before he can weigh up lucrative offers from NRL rivals. Staggs is settled in Brisbane and his preference is to remain at the Broncos, who are confronting a salary-cap squeeze with the club having to upgrade Reece Walsh and Selwyn Cobbo. The backline trio are all off-contract at the end of the next season and while the Broncos are confident they can retain all three, it won’t be a cheap exercise within the constraints of the salary cap.
