If Jarryd Hayne is headed to St George Illawarra, winger Jordan Pereira just hopes the NRL superstar has forgotten the boot to the face he copped from the young flyer late last season.
Hayne's destination for 2019 still remains one of the biggest pieces of the off‑ season puzzle, as he enters his third week of free agency after being unsigned by Parramatta.
The Eels still remain hopeful they can retain their marquee player, however they will have to offload talent to do so to stay under next year's salary cap.
The Dragons have emerged as the other contender to sign Hayne if the 30‑year‑old stays in the NRL, as they weigh up whether to pursue him as a winger or fullback.
Meanwhile the 2019 NRL Season will kick off at Melbourne's AAMI Park on Thursday, March 14.
