That appears to be the way that they are thinking Hazzbeen , but as you and everyone else realizes there is no guarantee that Hayne will perform as well as he did say 5-6 ago , they are simply rolling the dice .

Perhaps we confused pathways with runways?
Mate I personally think Hayne will be good for us , but don't want to lose a long term option in Dufty either ... Would be good if they are both with us ....
Player managers are the thorn that rips clubs, players and fans apart. Dont be surprised if what your 1st paragraph says is true. He makes it known and it shows he loves the Dragons as his parents are also from Lugarno in the St George area and he would be desperate to stay. But his dad Glen could be well advised if he is not happy with what his current manager is doing there are plenty more out there. I wish more players would stand up for themselves and do what their heart tells them but they let their managers run their whole life. Some managers are great talkers and can convince you a square peg goes into a round hole...amazing
Player managers and the media. They are getting us all into a tizz
i personnally think the scribes at work here its a big guess on their part lets see how this pans out .I SAY THIS IS ALL CRAP MADE UP BY THOSE IDIOTS WHO DONT LIKE THE DRAGONS .SO f**k OFF AND REPORT SOMETHING TRUTHFUL FOR A CHANGEJarryd Hayne: Knights close door on Eels return as Dragons reportedly clear runway space

Jarryd Hayne’s dream of returning to the Parramatta Eels in 2019 appears over – but St George Illawarra are reportedly set to get serious in their bid to lure the club-less veteran to Wollongong.
The two-time Dally M medallist’s one-year deal with the Eels expired at the end of last month and he remains unemployed despite both player and club publicly expressing a desire to reunite next season.
For the Eels to fit the former NSW and Australia star under their salary cap they need to move at least one high-profile player on to a rival club.
Veteran centre Michael Jennings has been linked with the Newcastle Knights in recent weeks in a move that would have freed up enough cap space for the Eels to pay Hayne’s estimated $700,000 asking price.
But the Knights’ decision to sign former South Sydney utility Hymel Hunt on a one-year deal has squashed the Jennings rumours and seemingly ended Hayne’s Eels career.
Parramatta have unsuccessfully shopped Mitchell Moses and Corey Norman to rival clubs and unless either playmaker finds a new employer in the coming months Hayne will be squeezed out.
The Dragons emerged as possible suitors for Hayne last month and are reportedly ready to ramp up their pursuit of the 30-year-old.
According to Fairfax Media, the Red V are prepared to offload enigmatic full-back Matt Dufty before the start of the NRL season in order to secure Hayne’s signature.
Dufty, who is contracted until the end of 2019, has produced plenty of eye-catching moments in his brief career in first-grade but inconsistency remains a problem.
Dragons officials believe the addition of Hayne would help fill the void left by the off-season departures of Nene Macdonald (North Queensland) and Jason Nightingale (retired).
Hayne is yet to comment publicly on the Dragons’ rumoured interest.
The former San Francisco 49ers running back has also been linked with a possible move to rugby union, however, a move to the Dragons now appears far more likely.

No he won’t
I base it on watching him and he is very ordinary in defence.
