Not real sure why there is so much hatred towards the bloke.
For being away from the game for 2 years I think he showed he hasn't really lost too much!
I do agree though, I don't think he was worth changing what the Titans were building as a club. Looks like Hoffman and Mead will be leaving at the end of the year, two of there better backs all year.
I hope we offer either of them a contract for next year.
Both first graders but no better than what we've got already.

Tigers smashing cowboys

bye bye Farah

Do we look to get Farah provided Tigers pay a big chunk of his remaining salary?
Could have a point to prove. He wouldn't have to relocate either
I wonder if Tigers fans will keep putting shit on Taylor. Probably back at it as soon as they lose.

After the way our last two big money contracted players have finished with us (Hayne and Foran) the more I think the more I'm glad we didn't get Haybe and disrupt the plan BA has in place.
Keep building the squad the way we are going is a much better idea.

Who would be the highest paid player at the club? Jennings or Norman (after he upgrades)

Would have to be Norman , I'd think.

So what do you think we were paying Foran under the cap?
It all depends what newspaper article you believe

One says 800k ... though i could have sworn it was claimed to be 1m when it was renogotiated ... but who knows with our rubber cap

I reckon it will be Norman when he re-signs (about $800k). But right now it's probably Jennings on about $500k-$600k

Again, just educated speculation.

I'm really starting to think that the NRL needs to publish player salaries (at least the ones under the cap), The NFL does it, a little transparency wouldn't hurt.. Or then again, it might too..

I'd be surprised if he's at the Titans next year to be honest. I'm thinking he's getting most of next years money this year.
I think he only signed with the Titans because he wanted to play this year for a team capable of making the Top 8. I doubt he's thought any further ahead at this stage of this actually being a 5-9 week deal.

You can't be serious. Living in denial seems to be a problem with a few people on here. How many on here refused to accept that we cheated the cap, or refused to accept the penalty - now we have deniers refusing to believe Jarryd will actually play NRL at another club.lol


Accept it mate - he will be there for the next two seasons. I don't rule out him coming back after that for a season or 2 but not before. You are suggesting that he is complete c### with no intention of fulfilling a contract. He is not mate.

I do. Parra has rocks in their head if they try to sign him again.

Not a sour grapes thing, but now that he's done with us, we need to be done with him.

We need to stop pinning all our hopes and dreams on Hayne. He's a great player, there's no doubt about that, but I severely doubt we'll ever see him blue & gold again. And part of me doesn't think we should.

He's not fulfilled his last two contracts, at Parra and 49ers, why do you think he will suddenly start now?

To clarify, I also don't believe he will come back to Parra.

Someone offered him more money in Sydney for next season...I suggest that team wasn't playing Finals this year.

I'm not sure he was contracted another season at SF. Didn't he have to basically trial again for another deal.

nope, he was signed till the end of 2018, He left early. Although I think (not sure, others will know better) when he was waived mid season, that might have cancelled that contract term.. but again, I don't know how that works..
