The Brisbane Broncos are in danger of losing their Queensland rep star, Selwyn Cobbo, sparking a fierce bidding war that could see him earn up to $1 million a season - a mind-blowing amount in the world of Rugby League.
Queensland Origin winger Cobbo is about to ignite a bidding war frenzy after it was revealed that the Broncos have failed to offer him a new contract.
With just six weeks left before he becomes a free agent on November 1, the versatile back is ready to test his market value.
While Cobbo would prefer to remain with the Broncos, he could potentially enter the NRL's elite millionaire's club if he explores his options.
This situation is shining a spotlight on the Broncos' salary cap struggles as they work on renegotiating deals for Reece Walsh and Kotoni Staggs.
Currently earning $625,000 this season, Cobbo has already made six appearances for Queensland and made his debut for Australia in the Pacific Championship in 2023.
The stakes are high as the Broncos face the challenge of retaining their talented star player amidst a fierce bidding war.
