Hayne to meet Semi

Make of this what you will, looks positive to meFIJI 7s Olympics squad member Jarryd Hayne is keeping his fingers crossed that he would meet Parramatta Eels Fijian Semi Radradra before the Taveuni man returns to Australia.Hayne yesterday confirmed to Times Sport that he has spoken to Radradra and knew that his former Eels teammate had been doing well."I spoke to Semi, he's doing OK but you know, you never know but hopefully I get to catch up with him, before he heads back," Hayne said.Radradra is back in the country to seek the blessings of his father as he hopes to switch to rugby union after what is expected to be a move to France.But the Hayne Plane wants to meet the Eels "trailblazer" Radradra and said he would help Radradra should the former Fiji 7s flyer needed it."It'll be good to catch up with him but you know he's his own man and I always told him I'm always here to chat and if he needs anything, am just a step away."I know he was in Suva the other day but we just missed each other and I was going out as he was coming in, hopefully we can catch up before he goes back or hopefully we can keep in contact," Hayne said.There have also been revelations that Parramatta is trying to reunite the duo with a $2m per year plan to reunite Semi Radradra and Jarryd Hayne at the club.

  • If Semi wants out after 2017, then go. Move on. Get Hayne back and keep Norman and Foz.
  • Maybe Bob. Semi needs a new manager I think...
  • Same.
  • If he goes it frees up space for the likes of Hayne and Norman, we still have to fit French, Taka, Gutho, Jennings and Foz into that backline as well - that's 7 players into 6 positions.

    Hang on - maybe we should be giving Semi permission to negotiate, especially if he's leaving at the end of 2017 anyway. The other blokes all seem very committed to our club - maybe they are the ones that should be feeling the warmth of our loyalty.

    If Semi's "his own man" he has had more than enough time to come out and let the fans know that they have nothing to worry about - surely he owes the fans that - we are the people that pay his and his families bills and we have copped alot this year - you would think he would be happy to put our minds at rest either way.

    Maybe Semi's living in a bit of a fantasy land and is starting to believe his own publicity, Hayne may want to fill him in on what it's like living by yourself in the Northern Hemisphere - I've done it and it's not great, and I didn't grow up on an island in Fiji.

    Sorry, but Semi is starting to seem a bit ungrateful and disrespectful toward the club, and the club is starting to sould a bit like a desperate spinster trying to woo an uninterested suitor.

    Just make up your mind Semi - and get the f**k on with it. I've had enough of all the dicking around and so have all of the punters I have spoken to about it.

    • Well said Kram, the club has bent over backwards for semi and the fans have given him cult status. He maybe  under paid for what he brings but it was he that was quick to sign a very good 4 year deal at the time, it was a risk for the club to commit that kind of money on a winger who could have been no better than Nabuli. Semi was still very raw when the club committed to him.

  • I'm worried about Hayne getting a semi after meeting Semi,given Snake's reporting that Hayne and Ian Thorpe were housemates in Seppo land.

  • I feel that the union thing is off the mark. I reckon Hayne is trying to get Semi to stay at the Eels. Hayne still loves the club and I reckon he would hate to see Semi leave especially if his head was not in the right place.
  • I agree. Hayne is wanting a Union mate.
  • Yeah I agree too, even though I agreed with the opposite to this 5 minutes ago. LOL
  • Ron, who knows what is happening? Parra have too many problems happening at the same time. Is Hayne coming or going. Is Semi coming or going. Is Foz coming or going.
