Nathan Ross
Sounds like he’s staying a donkey than.
Did anyone even think otherwise? Seriously?
I think you might be right!That was on the female footy show on fox a few weeks back. He said when he originally said he wanted back row, bennett approached him and said "You're playing wing right?" and Oates apparently said yeah so he reckons Bennett said to have some fun with it.
Then in practically the next sentence said he wanted to play back row, maybe a bit later in his career when he slows a bit.
Personally I think he wanted to play backrow, got told it ain't happening, still wants to play back row and made up this BS story to cover his failure to move to backrow.
Broncos on track to re-sign Oates.

Oates is also getting a deal with a local radio station. The radio station are probably paying the other half of his contract. I cant see how Broncos could legitemently afford all these players.
In the last 20 years there has only been 4 years where the Grand final didn't have at least one of the Broncos, Melbourne or Roosters in it.
These three sides during that time have only missed the finals 6 times (combined)
For a game that prides itself on being the most even competition in the world, that's a massive show of domination by those three sides.
TPA's, favouritism from the NRL or blatant cheating of the cap. Either way it's clear these sides are doing something better than the rest.
Oates will turn down $600000 offers from sydney clubs to stay at the Broncos for $200000 less.

But his media deal undoubtedly makes up the difference.
Is the media gig for Channel 9? Or for Nova FM radio here? I'm from Brisbane and I'm pretty glad to not hear a ****ty Sam Thaiday add or interview on the radio every day at work now. If it is Nova FM I struggle to understand the amount of $$$ they pay to Broncos players for TPA's for stuff all work
