BRONCOS legend Shane Webcke has challenged Sam Thaiday to fight for his Brisbane career as the Maroons forward faces a $100,000 pay cut to remain at Red Hill.
Speaking for the first time since his demotion to the bench, Thaiday hit out at his critics, claiming speculation over his future is nothing more than a "beat-up".
But Thaiday's tenuous hold on a Brisbane deal is real, with the Origin enforcer confronting the biggest salary downgrade of his career if he opts to become a Bronco for life.

The off-contract star earns about $400,000 annually, a salary the Broncos simply cannot continue amid the turbulent shake-up of their roster under coach Wayne Bennett's new regime.

Complicating the Thaiday saga is Brisbane's battle to retain other off-contract players.
Webcke won a premiership with Thaiday at the Broncos in 2006 and the Queensland front-row great urged his former teammate to prove he is worth retaining.
"Every game you are playing for your future. Sam should see every game as a litmus test because there are no guarantees in the NRL," Webcke said.

"If Sam has a real poor year he might be in danger, but I am confident he can produce his best form again."
Thaiday, 29, has another five games, starting against the Warriors on Sunday, to convince Bennett to open talks on a new deal.
