Deserves his own post. Was very doubtful after Wednesday's training and in all honesty probably shouldn't have played. Did a fantastic job. Very very important in the road ahead.

All those players involved in the Thymosin Beta 4 program have grown an invisible third leg.
That meant Jake had two good legs to play on.

How do I know about the invisible third leg - how else could Essendope be in the eight.


The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

Thought so. Has been a steady hand down back and a welcome addition. Him and Brown would hold their head high most weeks this year, even in losing games.

I'd like to know from any of the remaining ITK's if there was any risk of Jake's corked hammy turning into a proper injury from playing??

My fav song "King of Wishful Thinking", an ode to our dear denying coach,
was sung by 'Go West', who mysteriously disappeared after that brilliant hit song :shock:

Jake and NJB did sterling jobs on Waite and Ben Brown
One report said that Brown or Waite sat out most of the last qtr on the bench
because our big boys had stifled them and rendered them impotent

Jake is one of the best pickups in the last 3 years, unbelievable value

Hey Tony, just a quick one, I'm purely basing this off measurements, as I haven't seen either of Rice or White play.
Rice @ 184cm vs Brandon White @ 188cm - why would we go with Rice as a replacement for Carlisle if Carlisle missed?

Is Rice just a bigger body?
