The Broncos registered a stunning 21-20 win over the Tigers on Saturday night but it has come at a serious cost, with Payne Haas hobbling off with a knee injury.<\/p>\n

Haas\u2019 knee was twisted in a tacklefrom Royce Hunt on the half-hour mark, and the hulking prop immediately grimaced in pain and reached for his right knee.<\/p>\n

The 26-year-old tried to run it off but was unsuccessful, coming from the field moments later with Broncos medical staff ruling him out quickly.<\/p>\n

Haas reported serious right knee pain and will go for scans on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Brisbane were already missing 10 players from their top 30 squad and the latest Haas injury just adds to the mounting list of unavailable players.<\/p>\n

The Broncos were missing Ben Hunt (knee), Reece Walsh (jaw) and Pat Carrigan (suspended) for the Tigers clash but that didn\u2019t stop them pulling off a great win in front of a packed Campbelltown crowd.<\/p>\n

Kotoni Staggs was the hero for the Broncos, as Wests Tigers youngster Hamasi Makasini had a night to forget.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is an impressive game of rugby league, and the champs are alive and kicking in the seventh round of the season,\u201d said Fox League\u2019s Andrew Voss.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a huge win against a side that was on fire – without Carrigan, without Walsh and without Haas,\u201d added Greg Alexander.<\/p>\n
