The Parramatta Eels have announced the signing of Jarryd Hayne for the 2018 season.
Jarryd has today expressed excitement at the prospect of returning to the Club he supported as a child and resuming a relationship with our players, Members and fans.
โAs I said yesterday, my decision to return to Sydney wasnโt taken lightly so I am grateful that Brad and the Eels have offered me the opportunity to return to the Club,โ Hayne said.
โEels Members and fans have been behind me throughout my career and I want to use this second chance to repay that faith and support.โ
โI look forward to returning to training in early January 2018 and am keen to work hard and play my part for the team in building on last yearโs finals run.โ
Parramatta Eels CEO Bernie Gurr said that the Club was pleased that one of its most talented local juniors has returned home.
โJarryd started playing for our Club as a 15-year-old, so we are pleased that he now has the opportunity to return and be part of a strong squad and playing culture that Brad Arthur has developed over the past few seasons.โ Gurr said.
โFrom speaking with Jarryd, he is keen to join his teammates in early January and is committed to working with Brad and our players to build on our excellent 2017 season.
"Jarrydโs abilities will strengthen our 2018 player roster and we look forward to again seeing Jarryd in the Blue & Goldโ.
