He's done really well - better than I initially expected - and good on him.
I don't think it's a waste, because by his own words Hayne was no longer engaged by rugby league, and if we're honest he would basically clock off for 40mins during a lot of matches anyway (before showing his obvious talents). He's doing something new where he has a learning curve ahead of him, and that's not a waste on his terms. He could've been a lot in league etc etc, but let's face it, we were never going to push for the grand final again with Hayne's marquee fullback salary somewhat constraining our purchases in the key playmaker positions.
