He has been a battle-hardened servant of the club for more than a decade, but now he has just one more chance to prove he deserves to remain beyond this year.
Broncos coach Kevin Walters has refused to draw a line through fan favourite Corey Oates’ career at the club, but the man himself concedes he has 80 minutes to prove he still belongs in the NRL.
Corey Oates will have one last chance against Melbourne to prove he still belongs at the Brisbane Broncos.While he said he would “never say no” to other offers, ultimately his decisions would depend on what was best for his family. Oates’ potential farewell game comes after Kotoni Staggs was ruled out to nurse a quad strain, and will be joined in the casualty ward by Payne Haas, whom Broncos coach Kevin Walters confirmed would go in for foot surgery on Tuesday.
