'Kyle's only there because his dad picked him': Fletch and Hindy flame Dragons stars in hilarious interview
Nothing was off the table as Fletch and Hindy paid a visit to Dragons trio Blake Lawrie, Zac Lomax and Kyle Flanagan.
I always knew that the only way Jarryd Hayne would ever leave my beloved Parramatta Eels would be to play NFL.
With the recent rumours flying around I suspected the switch was coming, I just never expected it to be so soon – I thought it would be after the 2015 season when his current contract with Parramatta was up.
Have we seen the last of Jarryd Hayne in the NRL? I hope not.
I think Hayne will pursue his dream of playing NFL for a few years and then come back and finish his sporting career where it all started, at Parramatta.
It makes me sad to think that there’s a possibility that we could have seen Hayne play his last game in the NRL though.
So what does this mean for the Parramatta Eels?
Life after Hayne will be hard for the club. Anyone who puts on that number 1 jersey for the Blue and Gold will be compared to Hayne for years to come. They have very big shoes to fill.
The Eels relied on Hayne so much in attack that we will probably see a whole new attacking plan from them next year.
The club finally has some stability which is a good thing. Brad Arthur is the right man to take the club through the post-Hayne phase.
It’s a little disappointing to see a player of Hayne’s class leave the Eels at a time where there’s so much hope of success. However I can understand his reasons for doing it and could never hold that against him. He needs to chase his dreams.
The conditional release is just as much for the Eels as it is for Hayne. Who knows, he may need to exercise that clause at some stage next year.
As a Parramatta Eels fan, I’m hoping that it doesn’t work out and he’s back before the season starts next year.
As a Jarryd Hayne fan, I’m hoping he’s able to get a contract in the NFL and surprises America with his freakish talent, just like he did when he burst onto the NRL scene in 2006.
