Quote ="JEAN CAPDOUZE"Quote ="A unknown superstar"No chance Hayne could have played OLB, he'd have to weigh in the region of 250 - 270 pounds to play there. He'd be going up against 300 plus pound defensive line men.
I expect to see Hayne back in the NRL next season. Roosters have always wanted him but with there backline I can't see him heading there.'"
Roosters only have $600,000 under the cap as of now. They would still have to unload someone good to make a place for Hayne. Anyway not sure that he would want to play against Parramatta, where he is a hero.'"
Not quite correct. Roosters do have $600k available on cap, but as the season would be over half way complete by the time Hayne would join, they'd only need to count half a seasons salary on this years cap... So, if they were to sign him on $1.2m a season, the 2nd half of this season would only cost $600k on the cap... All very convenient, particularly as that sort of salary would put him in line with the very top earners in the game, and the Roosters were wining and dining him when he was in Aus, he was spotted in a restaurant with Trent Robinson (all a coincidence they claimed) and Nick Politis even lent him a super car...
