He’s there for his attacking prowess

Then I watched the game again and at 12.13 into the game Jamie runs the ball out of Defence

If you’ve recorded it go to 12.12

Look at his body language as he sees the 3 big defenders

Am I reading too much into it ?

Concussions can scare the absolute shiot out of anyone and he’s had 2 bad ones very recently

I may have it wrong ?
