Hayne open to union move

Gold Coast back Jarryd Hayne has revealed that he would be open to a move to European rugby union, once his current deal with the Titans ends.

Ben Barba recently joined Toulon and Hayne himself has recently spent time playing NFL for the San Francisco 49ers, and rugby union sevens for Fiji.

“There has definitely been interest from them (French rugby union) and for me, it’s the timing of it and whether I want to chance my arm at it,,” Hayne told the Brisbane Courier-Mail.

“Everything is an option, I don’t like to live in narrow vision.

“I played rugby when I was growing up. As a kid I did a lot of sports. That’s why it pisses me off when everyone carries on when someone changes sports.

“As kids, we are encouraged to try every sport we can, so as an adult, why should that change?

“That’s my stand on things. We get paid to do a job and we have to work our asses off at training, but once that contract is finished, if someone wants to try something different, that’s up to them.”
