Why is Michael Jennings being dumped by Parramatta? Who will sign him?

Reports that Michael Jennings is being told to look for another club. The Eels plan to play him in reserve grade (Wentworthville) to encourage him to leave.

This man is a world class centre. He has scored some brilliant tries, especially one for the Sydney Roosters in the 2013 Grand Final. Parramatta needs someone with his talent level. What is the reason?

Which NRL club can afford to sign him? He is on AU$800,000 a year. Could he go to Super League?
Bryce Gibbs scored a brilliant Grand Final try too. Why won't Parramatta sign him? He won't cost that much, surely? He could play centre couldn't he? Can he? Was he? Where is he? Who is he? or was he? Did he exist? I am here? Is this a question? Are we all having an existential crisis? Are we all here? Does here even exist?

Why did the Roosters dump him?

Your answer might be there.

Might be salary demand after Roosters won 2013 GF and minor 2014. Bear in mind they got him cheap after disciplinary issues at Penrith so it's make sense if he demands more after two successful years with the club.

Why are the Roosters fans going on about a try he scored in 2013? It's 2019 this year.

You just can't get over it can you? It totally screwed Manly.

Michael Jennings was good for the Roosters and good for the game.

Parramatta, once under the influence of mobster Cocker Spagnolo, has no respect for quality.

It has nothing do with the fact Manly lost that game. It's the fact that there are plenty of players who were good 6 years ago that no club would be interested in now.

Crazy situation where a guy who played test football 3 months ago is being told he's reserve grade quality.

He should sign with the Knights, they seem to have a VERY flexible salary cap, an extra 800k probably won't make a difference.

Mentally, he looks done and has so for the last couple of seasons. He did not play at NRL standard last season.
I would not want the Tigers to take him....his attitude needs fixing.

The last time he played for Wentworthville, he was selected in the centers for NSW... I think Jenko is on board with the move.
