To be fair to Jake all the talk that he never does it against the top teams is harsh for me. At FB he's never going to be a player that can single handedly beat a team as he isn't speedster like Field. Whilst he is an exceptional talent and one I'm glad we have playing for rather than against us he like many players needs others to step up too. For me when Jake doesn't appear to perform in most cases its always when the likes of 6,7 & 9 are poor and he's not alone in that.



His try assists this season show what he can do and how dangerous he is even when he only gets half decent ball, I think when the rest of the team aren't performing we all expect him to be still be able to turn a game on its head on his own as we know how good he is. One area I think he could improve is when things aren't going so well as a team he needs to learn to be more level headed, rather than letting his frustration get the better of him and then trying too hard to do it all, but that's Jake isn't it and his desire to win.

Hope he stays here...

Really hope jake stays we need to build a team around him and his ability

Wonder if Bennett is interested in him for the 2023 Dolphins squad?

I’ve never really bought the Connor to the NRL rumour, I’m sure sides have looked into the possibility of getting him over there though.



He’s been pretty open and brave to talk about how losing his dad at a young age hit him really hard and how it’s something he is still dealing with. The fact he himself somewhat recently became a dad and how close he is to his family probably means moving to the other side of the world isn’t gonna happen.



Canberra will also do their due diligence after their experiences with Bateman & Williams.

I remember him saying in an interview that he considered himself a "homebody" and had no ambitions to go down under. The bloke could have had a change of heart, especially with the sums of money chucked about in the NRL. I wouldn't blame him. But I find the rumours of him moving to Hull more believable.
