Been plenty of speculation regarding Hayne and his dreams since 2014. Funnily enough, most of that speculation has been close to spot on.
I reckon there is. If Jarryd wanted to leave for rugby in 2019, he was better off staying at the Titans and collecting the cash this year. I think he has been told that his next contract with the Eels will be improved if he performs this year, which was enough to get him across the line.I always thought there would be little chance we would keep him after this year.
He might've thought he would work his way into the 'key attacking player' role, probably at fullback, which is where the big money is. I'm sure our valuation of him will turn out lower than some other organisations. Especially if he kills it this year.I reckon there is.

I reckon this shows there is a significant chance he will stay (at least in rugby league). All this is is Beavis trying to pump his price to the maximumI always thought there would be little chance we would keep him after this year.
Quite possibly but there’s also the loyalty factor which could play a small part. I also genuinely think he stands to earn more post career if he creates a legacy with the eels for the next 5 years, rather than a code hopping dream chaser. Even if he changes clubs again I don’t think those post footy opportunities will exist to the same degree.He might've thought he would work his way into the 'key attacking player' role, probably at fullback, which is where the big money is.

Hayne is dumb as dogshit. I don't see any post-footy opportunities for him. As for his loyalty, I dare say he sees his debt to the club as paid in full this year.Quite possibly but there’s also the loyalty factor which could play a small part.

Mark Geyer says hi. He is one of the dumbest blokes on radio
If Hayne has 4 or 5 more successful seasons with the eels, he’ll still go down as an eels great. People will forget about his 1 1/2 seasons with the Titans and his failed sevens attempt. The NFL thing was pretty cool so he can quite easily get back on peoples good side.Hayne is dumb as dogshit. I don't see any post-footy opportunities for him.

Not just on radio - dumbest blokes, full stop.
He's a really nice guy, but he's dumb as all f**k.
The difference is he is immensely likeable. Always came across as a man of the people, much like Clint Gutherson.Mark Geyer says hi. He is one of the dumbest blokes on radio
You're saying he could have a media career up there with Price or Kenny?If Hayne has 4 or 5 more successful seasons with the eels, he’ll still go down as an eels great.

The last person you ask for advice is a natural.I don’t think there will be any shortage of opportunities for Hayne the brand and he’s still a very good footballer so who knows, perhaps there is value in bringing him on board in some kind of specialist coaching position. He may mature and have some advice on what not to do for some of the younger players coming through.
To get into media you either need to have something interesting to say or have that everyman type of charisma. Hayne has neither.Finally, I don’t subscribe to the Hayne is dumb as dogshit brigade. However, even if you’re right he’d have smart people looking after him. He (or his team) were pretty clever how they went about the NFL adventure.
