The Courier Mail <\/a>is reporting that Brisbane is prepared to offer the 24-year-old $4 million over four seasons to stay at the club.<\/p>\n The panel on NRL 360 was stunned that the Broncos would offer Willison Payne Haas-type cash.<\/p>\n \u201cIf it was the Wests Tigers offering Willison a million dollars a year, I\u2019d probably understand it, but it\u2019s the Brisbane Broncos,\u201d journalist Paul Crawley said. <\/p>\n \u201cFor generations they\u2019ve stayed for unders and that\u2019s what the Broncos are now, offering this young prop a million dollars. <\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s not Payne Haas. He\u2019s won his first Paul Morgan Medal and he\u2019s had a good season, but he\u2019s not a million-dollar prop.\u201d<\/p>\n Chooks facing 5 straight losses in final | 01:46<\/p>\n MORE NRL NEWS<\/p>\n \u2018Not perfect\u2019: Shock Addo-Carr backing emerges as veteran\u2019s Eels future hangs in the balance<\/a><\/p>\n Lingering Roosters question answered; Knights\u2019 headache as brutal call looms<\/a><\/p>\n Fellow reporter Dave Riccio said the million-dollar figure would be the result of ratchet clauses but still agreed with Crawley\u2019s assessment of the deal. <\/p>\n \u201cAt the end of the day, unfortunately, this is a reflection of the Broncos. It\u2019s where they\u2019re at,\u201d Riccio said. <\/p>\n In the club\u2019s glory days of the 1990s players like Langer, Walters, Webcke and Sailor would take less to stay knowing they could help each other win premierships and they did.<\/p>\n Former Broncos champion Gorden Tallis felt that the club may have been spooked into offering Willison such an eye-watering sum after watching one of their former players star at another club in Round 27.<\/a><\/p>\n He was referring to Coby Black, the Broncos junior who was long seen as the club\u2019s next boom halfback.<\/p>\n But he fell out of favour under Michael Maguire and Canberra coach Ricky Stuart was more than happy to pick him up and he starred on debut a fortnight ago against the Cowboys. <\/p>\n \u201cThey couldn\u2019t afford for him (Willison) to leave,\u201d Tallis said.<\/p>\n \u201cWith Payne Haas going, this guy\u2019s the next big star.<\/p>\n \u201cWith the way Coby Black played at the Raiders, I think there\u2019s a fair bit of pressure on the club to get the next big kill, and he\u2019s it.\u201d<\/p>\n Arrow’s touching tribute to Reynolds | 00:57<\/p>\n
