Payne Haas, the best prop in rugby league, will leave NRL champions Brisbane Broncos at the end of the 2026 season with his new club confirmed.<\/p>\n

The 26-year-old has made 142 appearances for Brisbane during his career so far with the next of those expected to come against Hull KR in the World Club Challenge<\/a>, however, the prop and his management have informed the Broncos of his intent to leave.<\/p>\n

Payne Haas is off-contract at the end of the current season and there has been talk about a possible exit with the rebel rugby union competition R360 a brief consideration before it was delayed, however, there has been little noise surrounding a switch to a rival NRL team.<\/p>\n

That is exactly what is set to happen though with South Sydney Rabbitohs set to sign Payne Haas on a three-year deal from 2027 onwards.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no denying that Haas is currently the best prop in the game and for many, the best forward as well, so a transfer of this size is huge.<\/p>\n

Payne Haas to join South Sydney Rabbitohs in 2027<\/p>\n

Both Brisbane and South Sydney have released statements about the matter with the Broncos simply confirming Haas\u2019 intent to leave.<\/p>\n

The NRL champs said: \u201cThe Brisbane Broncos can confirm that Payne Haas and his management have advised the Broncos that he intends to depart the Club at the end of the 2026 season.<\/p>\n

\u201cA signed contract reflecting that position has been lodged with the NRL and the Broncos will make no further comment on the matter until the expiration of the normal ten-day cooling off period.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Rabbitohs have confirmed that it it\u2019s them who have lodged that contract, with their statement reading: \u201cThe South Sydney Rabbitohs have lodged a signed contract with the NRL for Payne Haas to join the Club for the 2027, 2028 and 2029 seasons.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe contract is now subject to the ten-day cooling-off period. The Rabbitohs will be respecting the cooling-off period rules set by the NRL.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Rabbitohs will make no further comment regarding this until the ten-day cooling-off period has expired.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite Brisbane knowing that Haas was off-contract, it\u2019s thought that they expected they would be able to sign another one-year deal with the prop forward, or better a long-term solution.<\/p>\n

Instead, the best prop in the game is now set for a move that could reshape the NRL.<\/p>\n
