Lyon won't play until end of 2006
Eels fans still holding out some hope that Jamie Lyon might have a sudden change of heart, can give it up, according to a story on NZoom.com.
Lyon's manager Allan Gainey was quoted as saying: "He's back home, it's all over. He won't play again until the end of 2006," Gainey said.
"He's isolated himself (from the club). It's a very bizarre, unique situation."
Meanwhile, the same article says that Ali Lauiti'iti has already received offers from English and NRL clubs. Considering the Eels have no room to move under the salary cap, it would seem unlikely they're any chance of wooing the big Kiwi.
