Brisbane Broncos in talks with hooker Cory Paix, high-paid player, overlooked for first-grade, linked to other teams.
The Brisbane Broncos have opened talks with off-contract hooker Cory Paix, a player who had been rumored to be on his way out of the club for the past three years.
Despite not making a first-grade appearance last season, Paix was one of the highest-paid players in the QLD Cup competition, with an estimated salary of $320,000 per season.
He was overlooked for first-grade spots in favor of other players and was linked with several other teams, including the Canberra Raiders, Manly Sea Eagles, and Sydney Roosters, as well as clubs in the Super League competition.
Paix had even been granted permission to speak with rival clubs from the end of 2023 by the Broncos, who seemed willing to let him go.
