Jake the tryscorer

[Disco]

Just a special mention to Jake, as a middle forward scoring 9 tries this year

That is absurd

Behind only Uate, Walker and his brother

Jake the bloody legend!

 

[The Artist]

Yeah I also can't believe how many tries the kid has scored this year

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

What a year he's had. He pretty much embodies everything that's great about rugby league. Wouldn't swap him for anyone.

Surely he's a lock for dally m lock of the year. Outstanding year he's had. I too had noticed his try scoring abilities. Most of his tries don't come from skill like an outside back. They come frm commitment to being a support player and desire to be there at the right time. This guy is all heart and is prob my favorite manly player right now.

That was a strong try yesterday, what I really like about Jake is that he is a threat close to the line and he is developing distribution skills that are starting to resemble the great Arthur Beetson. He has fantastic vision and his natural understanding with Tom is developing into a real asset for the team.

You would have to think he would be dally m lock but Im not sure how the system works for positional awards. If its on dally m points Gallen will win.

Outstanding year, never plays a bad game. Always in the right spot to effect a critical tackle of backing up to score a try. Just wants to be around the action & wants to win. Going to be an absolute champion for this club and finish amongst the really big names we've ever had.

Beaver had better watch out or his try scoring record will be broken

 

[Eagles2nv]

Haha the way Jake is scoring Beaver better watch out

Only 164 more tries to go.

 

[Fluffy]

A few guys who would score highly in that position to compete against at mentioned you have Gallen, also Burgess would get a lot of votes and Brown has been one of Parras best as well and DeBellin certainly started the year on fire for the chokers.

 

[SeaEagle21]

He has been the most consistent player all season and deserves every award/accolade that comes his way. I'd like to see him get a few more spells on the sidelines for longevity reasons (hopefully with a couple of fwd signings) because i want him around for a long time to come. Indispensable is the word that comes to mind

Jake is a plodder, Beaver got 22 tries in his second year.

I was so lucky to have witnessed his whole U23 to NRL career

Try scoring machine

 

[Supreme Leader]

Best still most are as First or Last Try scorer.... I'm miles in front!

 

[MissKate]

Jake's had 1 or 2 fair tries disallowed by the idiot refs as well this season

It doesn't go by points for the positional awards.

Taumololololololo will be up there as well.

Jake is definitely the better of the brothers at this stage.

Very co-incidental our last good #1 and #13 were brothers as well.

Albeit Jake is a middle foward compared to the former #13.

 

[Arko-admirer]

I heard that Manly never lost when both Stewart brothers scored. Maybe that's true of Tom and Jake? Been the case the last two matches but only just against the Warriors. I don't claim any of this is backed by actual research.

 

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

It's funny that when we lost Gifty it was the end of the world. the guy was a great distributor of the ball in those great manly backline plays.

notice how Jake is becoming that player. often on the outside of the playmaker playing the part of an extra 5/8. Also looking to switch back to the inside for his brother.

if I were to compare like for like I honestly think Jake could be better that Gifty as a ball player come his prime years around 27.

if he starts kicking as well the guy could be anything and a cert for Aussie captain one day.
