Let's hope this kid and his brother are surrounded by some quality players . Jake is phenomenal in defence and attack.
Will be the no 1 prop in the game in around 3 years imo. He looks our best already, very consistent, huge motor as well.
If our halves showed an ounce of his drive and enthusiasm we would be fine, he is now the forward leader of the pack and we need to get in Addison Demetriou to add to this pack, time to reshuffle things cause it aint working anymore, we need to get in some speed too, the ball is in your court Toovey you have nothing to lose time to change things up.
Yeah, I think everybody on the field knew it, too. But once Maxwell said "No try" there was nothing there for the video refs to overrule it.
Don't you dare burn demetriou out in this team. Give him a taste at the end of the year but don't ryan James the kid.
Sign Jake T for at least another two year years til end 2019, before this season has finished. Sign his brother to 2019 as well with some kickers based on performance. This will keep the parasites at bay.
The kid is doing much more than living up to the hype around him when he played under 20's. Loves the club and loves showing the way for all of the other forwards. We are very lucky to have him. Make no mistake, his commitment this year has been a big factor in leading up to our last two wins.
He's looks underweight, but he is mobile, and he has heart. Imagine what he will be when he actually fills out ?
I still say that Jake Trbojevic would have been close to getting a City Origin jumper last weekend. It was probably only our poor form before the win in Melbourne that counted against him. He might still be a smokey for a NSW spot. If he doesn't play rep footy next year I'll be very surprised. Hell, if the PM's XIII plays PNG at the end of this season as normal I wouldn't bet against him making the team if he's healthy.
I have no doubt this boy will go on to play for NSW and AUS, unfortunately ( or fortunately ) for us they don't pick teams on form, more player profile. Think we better start getting used to being without him at rep time.
I think he's destined for greatness.......mind you, I thought I was as well, look how that turned out.....anyway, the missus is making me go to the pub now.....
