No but he is the highest profile Australian NFL player, even if he wasn't the best. He is probably the highest profile Aussie NRL player (at home) as well, despite being below his best.
So because more people turned out for his first game back than the following ones, you claim he's lost his pulling power? Call a cabinetmaker, bart. You're unhinged.
Lol. How do you explain that effect then... that it's somehow not a drop in interest or pulling power?

Maybe people turned away due to his "This is my house" wankery - the guy's "brand" is over exposed, and he's only be back in teh code for less than a month!

Bart has a sickness. Can we all just ignore his scorned lover deal and go back to throwing around wild assertions as to who Staggers mystery signing might be?

Lol. Funny how people here can't take alternate views on Hayne... a bit similar to how people here couldn't take my alternate views on 3P, until you all caught up with reality four years later!

As for Stag's rumour...I hope it's Ken Sio, but I fear it's Shannon McDonnell.

It's already been explained to you several times. It's pointless continuing.

Weren't you telling us just a couple of months ago that Moylan's defence was shit? Now you want to throw a million bucks at him?
Yes..
He isnt best defense but BA will fix it....The dukes about party tricks.Pulls things out of hats etc.BA is about toughness.
Combine the two and you have ultimate player.

Do you think crowds will drop another 7000 for his next game? Crowds fluctuate, but of course his initial game will draw the biggest crowd - like opening a new stadium, people wanted to be there for the historic event. I made sure I was home to watch it. I was less interested in his next game but still more interested in any other Titans game ever played (that didn't involve the Eels). This is why Hayne's appearances for the Titans have both been the highest ever drawing Warriors and Panthers games ever at that stadium.

I don't think crowds will drop 7,000 for his next home game.

But to try and argue that a 7,000 drop is not a 7,000 drop is a bit dishonest...

I must have missed the explanation of how a 7,000 drop in home crowd is not... a 7,000 drop in home game crowd? Reality is, Hayne's pulling power dropped in his first three weeks back. Explain away...
Warriors draw very well on the Gold Coast (and most of all when Hayne is playing) while the Panthers don't draw anywhere (but still a record and well above their season average when Hayne played).

You're welcome.

Maybe in 4 years time you can finally catch to the reality of the last mob being 10 times worse...

The fact we have made some signings and know one on here posts them to me suggests we all have about as much idea as each other.

Huh? The news of the Vave (Dave) signing and Wicks, DeGois and Edwards all re-signing was posted on here weeks ago

Lol, 3P United is back. The last lot were bad, sure. But worse?

Anyway, point is the remaining Hayne apologists will come to the party a few years too late.

As for Hayne ... I seriously couldn't give a shit about the bloke anymore but if you can't work out how big a draw card the guy is than there's no way helping you

lol, sure thing Roy.

All I'm saying is that Hayne's pulling power is overrated, as evidenced by the 7,000 crowd drop between home games. It's amusing to see people in here get upset instead of admitting that the Hayne hype might be coming to an end!
