I think it's actually promising that they didn't rush and throw bags of money at him to get him to sign.

Show's that we've grown up as a club and aren't afraid to make unpopular decisions.

If nothing else, it should ensure that we don't have any players in the 2017 poll in the NRL section "Who has been the biggest waste of money signing for 2017?". We might have won that Poll for signing Sandow in the past or Foran this year, but dammit we've learnt our lessons.... Unless of course in desperation now we go and sign Sam Williams for 800K!!!!!

All is good in the world, Greenberg has just come and endorsed JH signing for the Titans. He also approved that he could play this week, and that JH would assist in making the finals exciting

If you never believed that Greenberg was about himself and punishing the Eels, then where do you want that bridge again

I guess what grates my gears the most is that when you see all the coverage of the Hayne presser tonight, everyone will be talking about how the Eels missed out on Hayne because of their dysfunctional board.

The true facts are that Hayne was offered an Alan Bond deal and he had 24 hours before it was pulled. He took it and instead of being honest about it, he is blaming our board and spinning shit about how devo he is.

Where is the 24 hours thing coming from?

So all of a sudden I can travel down the road and watch Hayne play again.

I just hope next year he doesn't win it for the Titans in the dying seconds against us.

You're turning into Jake 2.0

The Titans signing Hayne is massive for them and for the NRL on the GC, of course Todd would be in favour of seeing a struggling club get good news.

Not everything is about punishing Parra. Sometimes good news for one club is just that.

You need to get over this whole "Todd is out to get us" mentality.

Kent will still be fapping at 6.30 when his shit truck show starts. You will never see anyone as happy as he will be.

What him latch on to the Hayne comments about how the Eels club is a basketcase.

So we get f-all notice that he wants a release to go dream chasing but he can't give us another week to table an offer? Jarryd has very quickly sunken to judas status in my eyes.
He was always going to say we didn't want him if we refused to match a bigger offer.

Wasn't the basket case issue fixed when the NRL put mighty Max in charge, seems more that there has been a delay in registering contracts. No doubt due to NRL restrictions, and again they have done their best to f**k us completely, as for Greenberg saying he wanted to make the club then powerhouse it deserved to be

You have the evidence of his trustworthiness, the man has no shame and has pushed JH as well

After 33 years of season tickets, its starting to hurt, I was going to get more as my daughter was going to join up, doesn't look likely now'

The club has to make a statement soon, as the rusted on fans are becoming disillusioned :(

Do you think it's possible that we could be no chance of winning the comp next year whether we signed Hayne or not? We haven't made the finals for seven years. I'd say we're focusing on that first.

As long as the club doesn't think their squad is good enough and is looking to purchase better players then I'm not overly fussed.

We only have 17 players signed for next year, with plenty of cap space. Why would you think we're not looking to sign better players?

We are in a position where we have to wait for NRL approval shit because of our own incompetence. The NRL don't have to do anything to f**k us over, because we've already done that ourselves. Stop blaming them for it.
