Warriors contract not out of the question for Kahu<br />

KIWI international Jordan<br />

Kahu says he is open to a<br />

return to New Zealand and<br />

possible contract with the<br />

Warriors.<br />

THe skilful Broncos star has<br />

been gaining local attention<br />

in the Brisbane media with<br />

speculation he may quit the<br />

Wayne Bennett-coached club at<br />

the end of this season.<br />

Kahu told Brisbane’s Courier-<br />

Mail that he will do what’s best<br />

for his young family when it<br />

comes to securing his future<br />

beyond 2017.<br />

THe Kiwi international is offcontract<br />

at the end of this season,<br />

along with a number of his<br />

Brisbane teammates.<br />

While players like Australian<br />

reps Anthony Milford and<br />

Darius Boyd are expected to be<br />

among the first re-signed by the<br />

club, Kahu’s future is still up in<br />

the air.<br />

THe centre said staying in<br />

Brisbane would be the easiest<br />

option as this stage with his<br />

young family, but did not go as<br />

far as Milford to say he was only<br />

considering the Broncos.<br />

With his partner Jess Kent due<br />

to give birth to their second child<br />

next month, Kahu said he would<br />

keep all options open.<br />

“I am doing everything for<br />

them right now,” he told the<br />

Courier-Mail.<br />

“I have to make sure I’m<br />

looking after them first and<br />

foremost. I have to see what the<br />

best offer is and make sure I’m<br />

doing the best for my family.<br />

“I haven’t spoken to my<br />

manager about anything yet<br />

but I will be open to anything.<br />

(But) it would be a lot easier if we<br />

stayed here.”<br />

Kahu is yet to speak to his<br />

manager about his contract<br />

negotiations.<br />

THe Kiwi back, whose family<br />

lives in Wellington, was linked to<br />

a possible move to the Warriors<br />

last year but denied the rumours<br />

Thursday March 9 2017<br />

at the time.<br />

However, now that he was<br />

off-contract, he did not rule out<br />

returning to his home country.<br />

“I’ve always thought about going<br />

home,” Kahu said.<br />

“Auckland (Warriors’ base)<br />

is pretty far from Wellington<br />

though and that’s where both of<br />

our families are. But I’m open to<br />

anything.”<br />
