Broncos star Payne Haas has confirmed that he is weighing up a switch in his representative football allegiance from Australia to Samoa.

The switch would not impact his Blues position, as Samoa is considered a tier-two nation. 

NRL legend Scott Prince told Jason Matthews on Wide World of Sports, "He wants to represent his family and heritage, and to do that while his grandparents are still around, they can enjoy his football."

"But more importantly, the fact that he can just sort of lead for his people and just show that you don't have to play for Australia, you can be proud of being Samoan."

"It's not about the money. It's about representing his culture, his people, and more importantly, representing his family," Prince continued.
