The NFL season is coming to an end over there so he won’t get a look in this season. Running backs in the NFL are fast and bigger then him.
It will be very hard to get a run over there, perhaps special teams.

Dick move from Holmes. Shit way to do business. Flange will be gutted as he is a mans man and would have expected a face to face not bullshit leaks from his manager.

He has been poorly advised.

The statement is corporate BS. No fan wishes you well well when you f**k over the club they love.

Big decisions now for Flange. The next recruit needs to be the right one to get some energy into the joint. Doubt Kennedy is the answer. Duges can't play FB for a season. Moyza is slowwww.

He will be back. Tail between his legs saying he just wanted to give it a go. He will be running out with the cowboys in 2020 and that clause will be useless.

Just to add to that, no need to hit the panic button and sign a bloke like AJ for 3 years and rule ourselves out from a marquee signing like Munster. Personally I'd rather put a line through next season and start from 2020.

Completely agree snoop...

I few marquee signings for 2020 would have us forgetting about Holmes. Can we get a turbo package deal. Gal and Val replacements

Who's the St George equivalent in the NFL mate?

Few comments about going all out for Munster. Fairly certain he has agreed terms with storm for a contract extension.

Very Disappointing. Can understand young bloke like him wanting to try it,but think its a bad move for him and Sharks and NRL. Thought Hayne had more of a chance to make it even being bit older. Agree not good build for running back but cant see him making a wide receiver given he didn't start at playing at 5 years old, didnt go through the university system either. Should have stayed here and worked on Fullback shortcomings instead of trying to take on a whole new game.

Only good outcome I can see is if he fails the NFL might stop sniffing around NRL players.

He has reached the pinnacle of League. Australia, State of Origin and a premiership.

I can understand wanting a new challenge.

I am not sure where he would play, but I would think he has some idea.

To small for a RB or WR, maybe a Corner back or Safety

Whatever position he wants to play Hes probably already gotten instructions for weight training regime and List of "dietery supplements " for the off season.

I get it. But I don’t really care anymore - after 2016 - the win was enough.
He was a goner regardless and anyone thinking otherwise was kidding themselves.
Yeah he was gone, gone after next season. Now he is gone now, and we have our dick in our hand looking for a replacement with just a few months before the season starts.

We have 2 pretty bloody good fullbacks still
In fact they were both ahead of him at the start of this year.
