I'll tell you this for free. If those two ever play for the same club again it won't be for us. Also, imagine having $2m tied up in your two starting FRF.

Haas with another solid prop like sele would complete our pack. Haas is potentially the greatest prop ever. Lot easier for young halves to learn their craft on the back of real props like haas

Bronco have Haas, Flegler and Carrigan all on good money. We can go cheaper at lock. Also TPJ would be extended for less than what he's currently on (~750k currently, Bronco chipping in with the reported ~925k).

Flegler is at the Dolphins next year. Which makes it even less likely Haas leaves. Next year outside of Haas and Carrigan their middles are very average.

Let's wait until he dominates the origin arena and test matches before we start saying he is potentially the best prop ever.. maybe he has potential to be, but right now he's a fair bit behind the greats.

Top 3 best props of all time:
1. Lazarus
2. Civoneceva
3. Webke


I think Haas will surpass them when it’s all said and done.

I think it's very likely Haas will be the best middle we've ever seen. I think he's already there personally.

100% haas will become
The best ever prop. He’s nearly there at only 23. His best is yet to come

It's entirely possible Haas is trying to distance himself as much as possible from his train wreck mother.

Moving interstate would certainly be one way.

Agree bro, that’s why I said potentially. He has everything - power, motor, size, speed, offload and moves well. He’s still young too.

First of all, this is a rumors thread, why shit on people for posting a rumor?
Best to take everything on here with a grain of salt.

as for the rumor in question, if Haas comes to the dogs it’ll be because of TPJ, not in place of him.

Yeah I agree but the flipside is someone like taumalolo.. an absolute beast who dominated as a young guy, but after the workload he's put himself through has dipped.. still bloody good, but unless he dominates like he once did for a couple/few more seasons, will never be remembered as a great.

I'm with you on pausing the immortal status, but remember how young he is too. Years away from his prime.

If he stays healthy and doesn't end up being overused like Taumulolo, honestly I think he sets a new bar for what a prop can be in our game.

I've always thought there are similarities with LeBron James in that someone that size shouldn't be able to do the things he does. Freak.

Fair point, longevity and sustained excellence is key to greatness

Taumalolo is already going to be considered a great

He was the first forward in the modern era to win a dally m playing against future immortals and took the cows to a premiership, his contract has already been worth it for the cows
