Hayne likely to be fit for Manly game
THE Titans are confident Jarryd Hayne will run out against Manly this weekend despite suffering a knee injury in their upset win over Melbourne.
The NSW State of Origin hopeful sparked fears he had re-injured his left ankle after missing the last 10 minutes of the Titans’ 38-36 win over the Storm on Saturday.
Hayne has a pinched nerve in his knee and he may not train today.
The former Eel missed six weeks through an ankle injury since his return in Round 8.
With just over two weeks until the first State of Origin match, he still isn’t a certainty.
Playing out of his preferred position as fullback, Hayne’s Origin charge was slowed by Melbourne’s likely Queensland centre Will Chambers, who had the best of their exchange at Suncorp Stadium.
Gold Coast’s win over the competition leaders proved bittersweet, with Dan Sarginson suspected to have dislocated a shoulder and Ryan Simpkins a ruptured ACL.
