The Australian<\/a> are now reporting Carrigan and partner Bronte, 28, are preparing to uproot their lives on the Gold Coast in exchange for starting a new chapter in Brisbane.<\/p>\nIt is believed Carrigan may be proving his commitment to the Broncos through the big life move.<\/p>\n
The lock, who is \u201cinvestigating property options\u201d in Brisbane, is currently representing the Kangaroos at the World Cup.<\/p>\n
It is understood he will make a final decision on his living situation after the tournament.<\/p>\n
Broncos coach Madge reportedly had reservations over the likes of Carrigan and Ben Hunt living far away from training.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Now those travel concerns are set to be a thing of the past if Carrigan makes the switch with sports broadcaster partner Bronte \u2014 who is looking to further her career on Channel 9.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Carrigan spoke recently about the Broncos captaincy, and was not shy in confirming he would be honoured to take up the role. <\/p>\n
He said: \u201cIt\u2019s obviously a hot topic to be spoken about. I think it\u2019s a privilege to be the captain of the Broncos and if that opportunity was to come, then I\u2019d take it with both hands and lead the club forward.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m lucky being there as well.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of great candidates and whatever\u2019s best for the club, I know \u2018Madge\u2019 (Maguire) will make that decision.\u201d<\/p>\n
