Love his tenacity & endeavor but I expect Jake will see plenty of time at Coburg in '09.

Opposition coaches have have got him targeted.

I'm a bit surprised at his numbers in 2008 - did not realise that he averaged that much possession or game time.
The bottom line we discovered that Jake was found out with decision making when in possession, vulnerable to brain fades under pressure which cost free kicks/50m penaties/goals and really struggles when faced with a 50:50 marking contest.

I like his competitive spirit, it just needs to be harnessed a little but he is at an age when he needs to make every post a winner (like the Hussler this Autumn)

to keep his sometimes short fuse under control 

He is one of those players that is fighting with so many others for a position down back....

Not sure what to expect to be honest
