Rumours and Stuff

To be honest, if the club didn't make him a formal offer of any kind, then BA didn't really want him.
As I said all along... luke warm.

We could apparently make a formal offer to Norman to put Dragons off chasing him, but an overpriced Hayne wasn't an urgent need for our now balanced squad.

Hayne's not a five-eighth, and we already have fullback covered.

Another conspiracy theory although highly unlikely
The club put out the offer knowing he had already signed elsewhere in an attempt to not put supporters off even more.

lip service is all that is, Brad said we had been talking to his management, we had a offer prepared to give to him this week. He was never coming back to parra. He is just like Sonny-bill didn't get what he wanted to he ran off and then came back to play elsewhere.

Again, the NRL apparently did not confirm the salary cap position

I have absolutely no faith or trust in Greenberg and his faction, they can continue to f**k our club and no one in the media will stand up to them. Probably because they are covering Slothfield at the same time and want to retain access to the head of the game
It's got the Head Office stink all over it.

I said from the first episode of the NRL rookie that Goodwin would win. How did I know? Because I'd read about him as a junior when he played for the Roosters and how much talent he had and that he'd left it all behind to go back to the country etc. Yep read that in RLW. Good to educate yourself.

As for Hayne turning his back on Parra for the Gold Coast, proves my point that Hayne is all about Hayne. He is super talented but he is all about Hayne.

I would have been happy for him to come back with the right attitude, but he hasn't. he chose to turn his back on Parra again. Hate to say I told you so last year but.........

If the NRL has opened the chest for Hayne then they have to do it for one player at everyclub or it will end up like the AFL where teams like GWS and the Suns got help and the Swans and Lions did for years and made the landscape very unfair.
I think if the NRL helps bring a player to the league it doesn't necessarily mean it's unfair to the other 15 clubs. They would all have to compete with each other to sign the player on top of the NRL's contribution.

Stop blaming the f**king NRL. Our own stupid club is the one that got us into this f**ked up position with the cap.

Why couldn't he wait? What was he in a hurry for?
He was in a hurry for headlines.

His merchandise sales, twitter hits etc have been dropping through the floor while he's not actually been doing anything.

Or he wanted to have a positive announcement before the start of the olympics, si Rio doesn't remind his "fans" of how he failed in his bid to ve there?

Hayne is just a capitalist brand, not am honourable human who keeps his word.

Why should there be any blame?

I'm so f**king glad mt club dudn't get stuck paying overs for a past it, dishonourable media stunt merkin!

We should be thankful our club never tabled an offer, and that Juda$ Hayne couldn't wait for something that was more reprssentative of his reduced value following two years away (see how Hoppa returned).

Hayne is saying the reason why he has not signed with the Eels is because of us not him. He says that we need to do something about the Board.

I thought we had Jarryd ?

We didn't do shit about the board, someone else had to come in and do that.
