He did mention JD, work ethic etc. It also sounded like Jakes 'condition' while not as serious anymore, is ongoing, comes and goes...

JD’s work ethic can never be questioned and it’s much better than Lecca and JK’s. Those guys were much more talented players with micu better weapons to their game. Think work ethic is a huge reason why Jack was able to be such a good undersized KPF for so long. Jake is now following on
Doubt you watched JK very closely if you’re questioning his work rate. Supremely hard worker
Think I didn’t write that down properly. Jk was too was a work horse but felt JD’s work for most of his career was at an exceptional level. Something like what Jakes put in this year and being lauded by the commentators.

You just volunteered to sponsor both Hewett and Chesser next year.
Had a great season but that's a ridiculous contract extension he got, he's had one good season and he's on what a million a season now?
With Darling off the books now, we’ve gotta hit that 95% of TPP one way or another
In all seriousness though, good for Jake. Hopefully we’ve found the formula for how to use him now in the latter half of his career. Hoping him and Oscar can prosper as a key forward pair in a decent team before their careers end.
Amazing how much he’s changed , went from a fringe player that you’d hardly ever hear about, to a superstar that is doing all the media in the world.
Got the feeling this added pressure and exposure will make him even better. He’s always been a hard worker just needed the confidence and the faith/oppotunity from the club to push him further.
Also, who would have thought by playing a player in their best position would actually lead to BOG performances.
