Yeah,
I gotta say I've never been much of an NFL fan, however, I have watched Hayne's 'journey' from NRL to NFL with a lot of interest, and will be following the fortunes of the 49's now, solely because he has cracked it there.
Really want to see him make them look even more foolish than he already has. I mean, he has only been playing NFL for a month and yes these have been only pre season trial/exhibition games, with less than full strength sides available, but to my inexperienced eye he has impressed and obviously the coaches think so also, as he made the roster. His stats for the pre-season speak volumes not only for his professionalism, athleticism and drive, but also indicate, I think, where he will end up after his career has finished.
All the best to him, tho' as a lifelong Parra supporter, I am still disappointed he left feeling he had 'achieved all he could' in NRL without winning a Premiership. However, the timing obviously couldn't be better.
Now - where's my 38 Hayne NFL jersey...
