There is a whisper that Demetriou offered Jarryd Hayne $1.5 per year to come across to the Western Sydney side in 2012...

Massive coup if it eventuates (bigger than the Hunt coup).
 
1.5 mil holy crap

so when they say they will have local kids playing for WS18 they really mean NRL players?

no thankyou
could get some interest in the game
but it would unify Rugby League again and they will actually think of it as a war and get stronger unified
leave Rugby League players alone and let them die off (the sport not players) somehow them selves
 
Hayne status in league at the moment is that he can get twice that atm by staying in league. Given the risk in changing codes its just not worth it for him to do - but if they doubled that price maybe it would be a different

If they want to chase a league player they should go for benji marshall - fantastic player, great personality and has strong following among kids in the west.
 
Benji Marshall doesn't come across as the sorta bloke that would do that.
 
I really hope we don't go down that track.

There's enough of this siege mentality and accusations of gimickry from the NRL types as it is.

We'd be better served trying to find a local migrant kid who can play the game, which would generate positive interest in the region and underscore the core commitments of the club, rather than the synicism the poaching of an NRL player would bring.

Agreed. Karmichael Hunt is enough. Focus should shift to as you say finding a local migrant kid who can play the game. Oh and get this bloke playing for West Sydney :thumbsu:

You can be sure Sheedy is thinking this way.

He can pick up Aaron Edwards (yes Mark Geyer, there are Polynesians playing in the AFL you clown), Ranga Whatsisname from Geelong and Majak Daw while he's at it :thumbsu:

Bring them in and get 'em out into the schools, would do more for GWS's long term credibility amongst the community than Jarryd Hayne ever would.
