forget co-captain, he is captain material - a "follow me boys" type of player.

Did seem to take another head knock at one point... not sure though? But I worry for him with his head low style.

He does tackle low but he really has great timing and ability to hit hard with low impact on himself. the odd time he will bang his head but great ones have the ability to adjust quickly and still hit perfectly and he has that. It is a blessing, I think he will be ok.
Well we all hope so but as you know there is now far greater awareness of he cumulative effect of repeated head knocks, our medical staff (and tackling technique advisers) have to be all over that because Jake is too valuable to jeopardise, in fact he's close to the most outstanding young forward we've produced in 20 years.
