HE must have laughed in between the tears on Monday night.
Jarryd Hayne's miracle try for Parramatta on Monday brought some rare joy to a terribly disrupted preparation for NSW coach Laurie Daley.

The smile though disappeared when Daley realised he would be without giant Cronulla and Blues prop Andrew Fifita for six to eight weeks.
Fifita left the field in the 18th minute during last night's game at Pirtek Stadium with grade two syndesmosis.
He was at Westmead Hospital having an MRI scan before the match had even ended.

Fifita will now miss the entire State of Origin series.
James Tamou, Paul Gallen, Trent Merrin and Aaron Woods would now be NSW's front-row contenders.
"I thought he (Fifita) rolled his ankle and hoped it wasn't too bad. I remember seeing him at halftime and he was on crutches. It wasn't a good sight," Hayne said.

In the end, Parramatta won the Johnny Mannah Cup 42-24 win over a disappointing Sharks side. Victory was special for Eels skipper Tim Mannah.

The night was lit-up by Hayne's dazzling first half try, where he beat four defenders in a scortching run to the tryline.
"The first one (try) was awesome. I have been doing a bit on my own to top up my speed," Hayne said.

Hayne is a dead-set freak. After the try, Hayne, returning on Monday night from a shoulder injury, blessed himself, looked skyward and then did the Hayne Plane.
"It was a great try," said Eels coach Brad Arthur. "I was happy with his attack and his leadership qualities.
"He got the football and ran. Tonight's effort was the best I have seen from him in a long time because he played through an injury and played tough.

"If we can complete our sets then we can put him in a position to do that more often."
Mannah added: "He (Hayne) is really putting his body on the line and doing the dirty stuff which his team-mates appreciate.
"He has really taken his game to another level this year. He is playing with a lot more urgency and energy."

It was Hayne's eighth try in his last nine matches against Cronulla. He scored a second run-away try last night nearing fulltime.
NSW desperately need Hayne at his attacking finest to beat Queensland. He did though finish the game in the sin-bin for a professional foul and missed a few one-on-one tackles.

Hayne was bold, as was halfback Chris Sandow and centre Will Hopoate.
Rather than a minute's silence, fans before the game were asked to stand and applaud for a minute to honour Mannah, who passed away at the start of last season.

The Sharks actually led 12-4 before Parramatta scored the next 24 points. Arthur was pleased with the win - but not with his team's defence.
"It wasn't good enough," he said. "Moving forward, if we want to be taken seriously then we have to improve our defence.
"We did some good things with the ball but we have to play for the 80 minutes."

Sharks coach Peter Sharp lamented another loss, saying: "We made way too many errors to compete at this level."
Gallen added: "Individually we were poor tonight. There were some missed one-on-one tackles that werent good enough for first grade."
