On another note history will repeat itself in another season or 2, just watch.
The club won't want Jake after his current contract which ends after 2026. He will be 33 before 2027 kicks off and have the pace of a severely wounded tortoise.
They will break the news to him some time after 2024.
If you think the pride jersey was bad wait for this to unfold.

Obviously form and physical health will determine this, as with any player in the NRL. I think it's too early to call. Watching him at SOO level last season, I wouldn't be so quick to write off Jake's longevity capabilities just yet. Obviously his role, minutes, etc may have to adapt. When it's time to call it a day, surely Manly keeps him on in a coaching/mentoring capacity regardless?
Father time clock keeps ticking and History repeats its self for every player
Every player peaks and then declines and some decline quicker than others
I see no drama here as this is just part of footy
In this competitive results driven world of sport every player is only as good as their last game
and Jakes dominant last game in 2022 was his one stand out effort for NSW
Lets hope we see Jake have a dominant 2023 year
Don't underestimate the effect of the change of coaching staff and their approach to the game. I like what I've seen during the off season and the players like it too. I expecting to see a much improved Manly side this season. Anything is possible.

You’ve just broken it to him.
Not just a coach ... a whole new approach from waterboy to CEO ...
It's like they have all been to ole Biff's Southern Baptist Revival Tent and od'ed on the cordial ..
So Wombat .. take off that mask ... clap your hands ... and sing from the prayer sheet ...
"Mine eye's have seen the glory of the coming of the ...... "
We want all our players and coaching staff to have the best 2023 and 24
We want a Manly Premiership Win
Anything else is Mediocre and Not Manly
Lower our Great Standards
and we stand for Nothing Great !
I know you do dear .. we all miss Biff ... but when he started barking at the mailman and chewing the furniture .. they had to give him a time out ..
Looking at Sea Eagles 200 gamers, I think Bob Batty might be the only one to miss a premiership win. He did play grand finals for Manly as the club was building to their first premiership, but selflessly stepped down to allow some young kid to play first grade, or so the story goes.

Top competitor Bob Batty. Remember him well. Good attacking player, reasonable defense and a goal kicker of some worth. Very popular with the fans. And you're right. Retired to allow a young kid from the Central Coast called Eadie to assume the custodian role. A shame he missed out on a premiership
Zero recollection of Bob as I was too young but do recall frank Hyde referring to him as the Road Runner!
I know the story feathered friend
The Great Manly Club man Batty was at the end of his great Manly career and the Emerging super star the Wombat was ripe to rip into the Manly number one jersey and it was unjustifiable to hold him back and the rest is History
The 4 time premiership Winning Fullback
The Incredible , Powerful and Durable Graham Eadie
The Legendary Wombat locking down the Manly Fortress

You're bringing back the memories there SER8. I recall him being called the Road Runner and I guess in a sense he reminded you of that character. Medium to tallish height, slim and could run like RR. Scored quite a few tries over the years. He was one of many top full backs of that age including Langlands, Johns, Barnes, Simms and regrettably missed out on rep selection. Was good enough, just too many good ones in that age.
Jake would have to almost be the nicest bloke in Australia.
His parents and brothers would be very proud.
