Clarification sought before Hayne signs Eels deal

[big boppa eel]

lol...I can't believe the reaction of some people I really can't..

btw, why hasn't he signed with the GWS..I thought a secret deal was done?

Do you know for a fact he hasn't signed with AFL.?

 

[bartman]

for hayne to get an upgrade on this season, he will need to sign off soon.

Yep, his upgrade will slip if he goes back into bludge mode on the field, like the start of 2009...

no bbe, I was being fasicious (sp) ..

I still believe he'll stay, infact I wouldn't even be surprised if he's already signed and Ossie is picking the right time to release the news, ie: this sundays AGM or when he goes back to training..

I'm really scratching my head at what the fuss is about..:?

 

[Joshuatheeel]

This article states the four year contract includes next year , however from what I read before it was a 4 year contract plus next year.

Anyhow if we lose him we can make a play for Thurston and move Kris or Mortimer to fullback

 

[woddy]

He needs a get out clause to play AFL for GWS alternate weekends

Without being facetious....he is signed until 2010 anyway. What he does then, he does then....!!!!
To quote Alfred E Neuman..."Wot, me worry"

Funny thing is, even if he does sign, his then contract would expire by 2013......right when GWS is supposed to start up.

sorry Pete, you must of mistaken me for someone who gave a sh*t, I'm far from jumping off the gap and have been basicaly saying all along that no one player is bigger than the club.

 

[parra pete]

Those are EXACTLY my thought as well Que Sera, Sera...
If he goes he goes, if he stays he stays...What can worrying about it achieve???

 

[lingard]

My only possible concern in all of this is: will Hayne really be worth $500,000 per year? If he plays like he did during the last few months of 2009, then yes, he probably is worth that money. But if he doesn`t........?
And for that money he`ll want to be consistently good, too.

agreed

we had Vella and Cayless signed on some pretty big coin after 2001 IIRC and neither ever seemed to have a year as close to that again

it's a big gamble based on half a season

Vella is a perfect case in point. His form forever after he signed that deal was appalling.

he also won rookie of the year just like Hayne IIRC

Yeh, I think you're right.
Somehow, imo, I don't think Hayne's form would stoop that low, unless of course the whole team is struggling, which was the case early this season when he was playing 5/8th.

[jk13]

apparently the sticking point involves where they'll place his statue at para stadium. the design has been sorted, he'll be in the ssshhhh pose

 

[Hellsy]

Did I hear correct today at AGM that Hayne is meant to put pen to paper in the next week?

 

[strider]

I'd like to seek clarification that the paper involved will have an Eels masthead or a GWS one? :sarcasm:

It was actually stated that he'll do it in the next few days.

:whistle:whistle
