Trbojevic throws his weight around

[tookey]

The best NRL judges are already aware how huge a future Jake Trbojevic has.

But did we know that he could also be the strongest forward in the NRL?

On the recent Four Nations tour in the UK, the rookie Test forward left some of the hardest and toughest forwards gasping for air during wrestling drills.

The Manly forward stood alone, having wiped the floor of the likes of Matt Scott, David Klemmer, Trent Merrin and Aaron Woods.

I remember during a game in 2015, Andrew Johns in commentary said that at Manly training he had never seen Jake loose a wrestling drill.

Whatever strength he has in his muscles, he has ten times that in his heart.
I just adore the kid.

The best part is he and Tom are Manly through and through. Will carry the tradition of local champions that carry us to a new era.

The idiot in the Tele this morning picked likely blues team for 2017 + 7 fringe players. No Jake WTF.

Yeah on wing. Sorry don't have the skills to post the article

I'd imagine Jake has a low center of gravity which would help with tackling and wrestling. Balance and stability would work in his favour over bigger more top heavy blokes.

The coach sees him as the future full back.
