You may remember that Jarryd, a National Rugby League player of some note in Australia, won a contract with the San Francisco 49ers but was released after one season, which ended in mid-2016. He said that he was going to join the Fiji Rugby Sevens team for the Rio Olympics but that was a failed attempt. He then returned to the Australian National Rugby League, with the team I support, the Gold Coast Titans.

Because of the American allegations, the Eels management continue to "monitor the situation". And a spokesman for the NRL said the Integrity Unit also would continue to monitor the civil case involving Hayne.
