Payne Haas on Fatherhood and Broncos` Future

Payne Haas, the Brisbane Broncos star, has been making headlines both on and off the field. Recently, Haas and his partner, Leilani Mohenoa, welcomed their second child, a baby boy named Luckee, born on December 5. This new addition to the family has brought joy to the couple, with Haas sharing heartwarming photos of Luckee’s first meeting with his three-year-old sister, Lala.

Haas, who has had a tumultuous past with off-field controversies, has spoken about how becoming a father has significantly changed his life. He credits fatherhood for helping him become more grounded and responsible. The 25-year-old prop forward is now embracing the cultural shift within the Broncos under new coach Michael Maguire.

Haas has also reflected on the impact of former NRL player Todd Carney’s recent visit to the club. Carney, who had his career marred by off-field issues, shared his experiences and the importance of making wise decisions, a message that resonated deeply with the young players.

As the Broncos look to recover from a disappointing 12th-place finish in 2024, Haas emphasizes the need for mental toughness and consistency. He believes that the team’s ability to perform under pressure and maintain their physical and mental stamina will be crucial in their bid to play finals next season.
