The NRL even came out yesterday and said the investigation into players/managers is ongoing but just like every other player Hayne can play while its underway.
The previous board was crap at most things but you do have to congratulate them for a success 'the NRL is corrupt and out to get us' campaign.
Hayne wanted to leave Parra a few years ago so he concocted 'the dream' to get out of his contract.
He never had any intention of eventually coming back to Parra - only if we paid stupid money.
Our latest salary cap dramas gave him the perfect excuse to offer up fans and the Parra club - after all who would come to a club on its knees that has no ability to source TPAs or match their competitors best offers.
Face it, Hayne wanted out years ago and he got his wish. It was great while it lasted but we need to move on without him.
Who knows, in 8 months we may all be saying Jarryd who?
I'd take Hoffman and he can team back up with Norman.
I am of the view that the NRL's claim to be serious about sorting out player managers is just that - a claim.
If they were really serious about it, then they would have done something by now, you would think they would have enough evidence by now to implicate at least one or two managers through their involvement with the Eels. Its the NRL's usual BS on matters such as these that us fans treat their comments with contempt.
They were quick (in their pace of things) to suspend and de-register the board (deserved of course) but as usual seem to be slow in acting on anything to do with players and/or their managers. Remember they used the same evidence (i.e. Sewards and Irvines 'private" and undisclosed testimony) to convict others but don't be too willing to use it elsewhere.
Not a conspiracy per se - more NRL using stuff to meet their needs/objectives.
