I don't blame him for leaving considering the sh*t hes had to put up with at the Eels.
I'm surprised he hasnt revealed hes bipolar or suffering from depression.

Yeah getting knocked out of the finals three times in four years by cheats would take its toll on anyone.

Not by a long stretch. This guy has carried Parramatta on his back for years and never had the pleasure of winning a premiership. He has been f**ked around by NSW and Australian selectors. He has had to endure childish comments about his attitude and his ego by so-called Parramatta fans. He has stuck with this club through thick and thin. He is probably the best player this club has ever had and ever will have. I have had the pleasure to see Ken Thornett, Brett Kenny, Michael Cronin, Ray price and Jarryd Hayne all play for my club. I feel honoured.

Spot on.

I love the way he has backed himself with this. Puts everything on the line for a shot. That is Hayne all over for me and I hope he really nails it over there. He is up against it for sure and as any number of people will point out there are a lot of barriers and doubts. But he is having a shot anyway. It's not a blind shot - he obviously has a strategy and belief and commitment.

I admired Ambrose for stepping out of the insular world of Aussie touring cars for NASCAR. He forged a path but no-one had the balls to follow him. I admire Hayne for the same ballsy move, although Hayne's seems several degrees harder.

I also don't rate kapernaick.He sure can run but his decision making isn't great.Oh he does have a great arm too just needs too keep his eyes open more and he can succed and become one of the best.
I just like Luck and Stafford better. They looks like good old fashioned QB's.Lets see how Wilson and co go after a few more big hits while they run at the line

I was mostly being facetious in regards to Kaepernick.
As a Niners fan I felt obligated to defend him.

And what did the club get out of the negotiated release? Losing our superstar player with no realistic chance of getting him back. Also leaving us with no chance of covering for his loss in 2015. A good chance at our third wooden spoon in four years.

I'm sure we could have denied him a release and then put up with the whining that goes on when superstar players don't get what they want.

Did you read the post I was replying to????

His manager, Wayne Beavis, didn't know about his decision to leave until Thursday.


Neither did Parramatta. It's understood they offered him "everything for life" and it wasn't enough.


Brad Arthur, the players and the fans have every right to be angry even if Hayne's departure means they can now sign Brett Stewart from Manly.


"I'm done," Hayne said of his time in rugby league. It was a stunning two-word admission from someone who seemingly has it all.
He ain't coming back, the "lifetime agreement" is obvious horseshit/PR spin. If NFL doesn't work out for him it would be easy for him to give french or japanese rugby a go, for his end of career paycheck.

He gave less than a week's notice... great for the club's forward planning!

True...well maybe we fine tune hoppa for fullback and he can start earning his money.
Than go after ferguson or SKD??

Gutted. :(

The whole situation is farcical, and typical of Hayne's egotistical ways IMO.

Had he made the announcement the same time Sam Burgess did, it wouldn't have been an issue.

Good luck to him, and thanks for the memories - but he's f**ked our 2015 campaign after some solid work to start arresting the slide down the ladder.
Yep.
The timing is starting to shit me especially seeing that he made the announcement whilst the coach he chose was out of the country.
And yep.
