Jake T.

[Chunkytuna]

At the game and in line with Jake when he was hit by Papa. You could see it coming a mile away. The sad thing is he got knocked out putting his body on the line for our club.

Like he ALWAYS does.

Jake has earnt the right to decide when he retires. I trust that his intelligence and team first mentality- which he has demonstrated throughout his career - would ensure he doesn’t play on to the detriment of either the team or himself.

The line in the article above about him putting it on hold to see if he can handle it demonstrates as much.

He is more club first than anyone.

Disagree about not playing on to his detriment.
He 100% would.
You can see it when they try to take him from the field each time.

Bit different id argue, when he’s in the heat of battle and just been knocked half unconscious. In the cold light of day, with a clear head and caring voices around him, I think he’s intelligent enough to make the right decision.

This sort of crap will get Walters the sack. Love Jake but he is barely nrl standard these days

Could be that not a lot of players want to play on after the our season ends. Kevvie will just be happy just to take 2nd picks right now.

Fair enough.
I think he'd trade his body / injuries for Manly success.

Jake could be missing for 2 games I'd say, he's had a few head knocks now.

Agreed, however that would mean retiring at the end of this season.

Is it 3 category 1s this year and 4 in the last 12 months? I’d shut his season down now as there is no point taking a risk on his health when we are already done and dusted.
