In a bold move that could shift the tide for the struggling Broncos, Todd Carney has been brought in to impart some wisdom amidst the turmoil surrounding Ezra Mam at the NRL club.
This decision comes on the heels of a turbulent off-field saga that has sent shockwaves through the Broncos camp.
Broncos powerhouse, Payne Haas, has stepped forward to commend Carney's impact on the team after the former NRL bad boy was enlisted to address the players on the repercussions of poor choices.
With new coach, Michael Maguire, at the helm and a clear directive to overhaul the club's culture, dealing with the fallout from Mam's alleged drug driving saga has become a top priority.
Mam is set to face court this month on charges of drug driving following a collision that left three individuals injured.
After a stint in rehab and facing potential repercussions for his actions, Mam is expected to be sidelined for the early part of the upcoming season.
Carney, no stranger to controversy during his playing days, has been tasked with sharing his experiences and lessons learned with the Broncos players.
The 38-year-old, once a Dally M Medallist, delivered a thought-provoking message during a mandatory NRL education session for the club.
Haas, standing tall as a formidable force on the field, admitted that Carney's words had a profound impact on him and his teammates.
The essence of Carney's advice centered around the importance of considering the consequences of one's actions before making a move, resonating deeply with the Brisbane squad.
