Australian Rugby Union (ARU) boss Bill Pulver has officially closed the door on any chance of Jarryd Hayne playing Super Rugby next year.
The NSW Waratahs announced earlier this week they would not be offering Hayne a contract, and Pulver revealed the code-hopper and his management had made clear to the ARU his preference to remain in NSW.
"That bird's probably flown," Pulver told Fox Sports News.
