Madge doing his magic...

How does this have anything to do with Madge?

 

[Rock Hopper Steve]

Must have had a secret trip to Nana Glen with Rusty..?
Cant believe they can fit em all in
Dont understand who is advising him..much more $$$ in Rugby anywhere

It's moves like this that give NRL fans the shits, first Fifita now Haas, while ago they couldn't afford to keep Keaon Koloamatangi how are they finding the cap room.

3rd party sponsorships are outside the salary cap

and other "Opportunities"

South's salary cap was top ended with fat contracts before Fifita came let alone Haas. Keon was on 600k or so. Some cooked cooks going on there for sure.

 

[innsaneink]

Maybe we should join em

Cant beat em

 

[whadafeck]

never seen a team invest so heavily in the forwards while having such a weak spine. It's a good signing and I would be lying if I said I wasn't jealous, but I am doubtful that this makes souths a significantly better team

 

[upthetigers]

Bastards

Letting go of Keaon makes a bit more sense now

 

[wstigers11]

I’m jealous I can’t lie

 

[swag_tiger]

Why would we need Haas and Fifita when we have May and Fainu.
The league should be jealous of us not them.

 

[Merlot]

from the info i just saw , there is plenty of time for Souths to get their books in order.
Only 3 players under contract for 2028

Madge doing his magic...

Madge drove out Sam Burgess
drove out Haas
souths needed a good forward

 

[Aceshigh]

That’s a crazy move for him.

They have plenty of room under their sombrero

You think a happy Payne Haas leaves the Broncos for Redfern?

Keon was on 700k and this will certainly mean this is Codys last year at Souths as he is off-contract. They are going to be very top heavy.

If he was looking to go to a Sydney club, I for one am glad its Souths and not the Roosters, Dogs or Parra.

Damn

We thought we had him

Just quoting an old friend

Haas quitting the Broncos isn’t surprising. He’s shown about as much commitment to them the last couple years as Woods, Tedesco and Moses showed us in the lead up to them leaving. It’s the destination that’s a surprise. I had him going to rugby. And if he stayed in the NRL, the only club I could see him going to was the Roosters. The Bennett factor was too strong though.

He was unhappy long before Madge.

 

[wstigers11]

Reported $1.2m same amount he’s already getting at broncos why leave

 

[Don Kershane]

Ahmad Merhi was obviously the biggest influence.
