Anderson praises Hayne's donkey work

Posted by 1Eyed Eel on August 16, 2009 at 5:32am
Jarryd Hayne's break at the end of the match was both recognition of his importance of the team but also just how many minutes he has played this year. "He's played about 15,000 minutes this year, so I gave him a rest. I don't think he has missed a minute of any game, of any week." "We need him, we need him to continue what we want to do and if I can get him off 10 minutes before the end, so be it.'' While Hayne produced more freakish plays tonight, Anderson also applauded the hard yards that his star fullback contributed. "I think our whole team recognises that pretty much we know when he calls for the ball, he wants it and if he wants it that's good for all of us,'' Anderson said. "He's done his fair share of tough, hard work tonight - donkey work. And he's done his fair share of the flamboyant. There's some highlight reels there and I was like anyone else, I was applauding them." News Limited Match Report

" 
 If the Bulldogs get Galvin, the Eels number 1 priority signing should be Plil Gould. Like him or not, the man takes struggling clubs and makes them successful in a short time. He knows what a successful club looks like and he builds success on…"
