Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 2869464, member: 1769"] [SIZE=6][B]Gold Coast Titans star Jarryd Hayne skips watching team play[/B][/SIZE] Emma Greenwood, Gold Coast Bulletinan hour ago SENIOR Titans are continuing to support coach Neil Henry [B]as it emerges star player Jarryd Hayne did not join his teammates at Thursday night’s game against the Eels despite being in Sydney.[/B] Titans players Jarrod Wallace and former Kevin Proctor said they had not seen Hayne at the game on Thursday despite him being in Sydney to get treatment on a foot injury. “I know he went down to Sydney and I think he got some treatment from his doctor down there but I’m not too sure if he came to the game or not,” Proctor said. Wallace also confirmed the players had not seen Hayne at the game but said it did not matter, with the playing group confident he would have been supporting the team wherever he was. “I’m sure he would have been supporting us wherever he was,” Wallace said. “He probably wanted to stay away from all the cameras because if he was there and cameras everywhere it might have taken the focus off the team and been a bit of a distraction. “I don’t think it really matters if he was there.” Hayne did not travel with the team to Sydney on Wednesday but headed down in his own time for treatment on his injured foot and ankle. [B]The Titans star reportedly had dinner with former Eels teammates on Friday night but was not seen by the Titans players.[/B] The future of Hayne and Henry is set to be decided at a board meeting as early as today. And while speculation continues to mount that Henry could lose his job, Proctor and Wallace said the team stood united behind the coach. Former co-captain Proctor confirmed he, captain Ryan James and fellow leader Nathan Peats had fronted chief executive Graham Annesley to tell him of their support for Henry. Despite some reports to the contrary, the coach was not present at the time and the players had not felt any pressure to support him. “We went there by ourselves and just said what we wanted to say and spoke for the players and told them our side of the story,” Proctor said. “We had a good yarn and got our point across. “We’re all backing him as players and I’m hoping the board does that too.” [URL]http://www.couriermail.com.au/sport/nrl/teams/titans/gold-coast-titans-star-jarryd-hayne-skips-watching-team-play/news-story/52194733a243b46dd7b71e9802741e33[/URL] [/QUOTE]
