Payne Haas is Origin’s perfect monster, poised to join the Blues all-time greats
@Source: smh.com.au
If ever Mary Shelley’s Dr Victor Frankenstein were to turn his hand to rugby league, Payne Haas might be the perfect monster.
One hundred and ninety-four centimetres and 119 kilograms of raw Samoan power. Swiss and Filipino heritage. The aerobic capacity of a marathon runner. The footwork of a bantamweight boxer and increasingly deft hands to match. Shoulders that rarely slump, or miss, no matter the defensive workload.
And an ability to do it all at the most elite level, with torn, twinged muscles and a bulging disc in his back - purely because that’s what Payne Haas does.
And what the 25-year-old is doing, “is pushing the boundaries of what a front-rower’s body can do,” Broncos coach Michael Maguire says.
