All that contract sort of stuff will sort itself out eventually.” “When I first came into the NRL, he helped me out a lot, especially being a Muslim,” said Haas, whose long beard is a tribute to his Islamic faith. “Some of the troubles I’ve gone through (off the field), Sonny Bill has been there for me. “To see him last night, doing what he did, I was pretty nervous before his fight. I couldn’t talk to anyone. I was nervous for Sonny, but to see him win, I was so relieved and I am happy for him. “He is one of the best athletes in the world.” “My main goal is to win a comp for sure,” he said. “We have a long way to go, we have to take things day by day, but the ultimate goal for me is to win a premiership and make this club great again.” [B]On playing Lolo this week[/B] “Players like myself and Jase, we look forward to these kind of battles,” he said. “I know Jase will be up for this. Their forward pack dominated the Raiders last week and they will be looking to do the same to us. “That makes me more ready for it. It’s what you play for, these kind of battles, so I can’t wait for Sunday afternoon, it will be pretty physical.” Deal has apparently been on the table for 6 months which the Broncos board approved at 1m per year for 6 years. Haas says he has no intention of leaving the club, and SBW is not trying to get him to sign elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
