What a great 2 page spread on Jake.
Some AFL footballers get to where they are on sheer natural ability.
Not Jake though. He has worked his backside off and worked so hard to get to the Tigers AFl side.
Not too any have gone through what he has, to become an AFl footballer.
An inspirational article and recommend it as must read.

It certainly is a great read.
As Dusty has said a few times, I'm proud of the RFC club for giving the likes of Aarts, Lambert, Broad, Baker and Pickett a chance after the disappointments they had in not getting drafted on numerous occasions. It makes them grateful, and hungry for success, a couple of good traits to have in players.
Probably right, but wasn't on his own there tonight ... Rioli and Caddy come to mind and probably Aarts
If he looked like a VFL footballer, Rioli looked like an EDFL footballer.
Yeah, bit off the boil tonight.
When he, Castagna and Rioli are off the boil at the same time, it hurts us.
I think Aarts' role is the same as George's. And he's performed it better this season.
Rioli's been terrible, and is experienced enough that he shouldn't need his younger cousin in the side to hold his hand.
Aarts to me is a hard working flanker who will always give his best but he lacks the pace and the tricks that really good small forwards have these days.
I don’t know what Castagna s role is, I accept that, but it sure as hell isn’t making basic skill errors and he has made far too many of them this year.
Yes Rioli has played well in big games but to me he has gone backwards. Hasn’t had a really good game for a couple of years now:
Crumbing forward sells Aarts short. Been our best tackling and pressure forward too.
And Rioli? Or do we just need to keep clinging on to that last name in the hope he brings something like he showed in 2017?
Maybe Grorge can bring a friend to boost his performance?
Dan needs a companion pony like a champion racehorse?. Come on BR.
Rioli was better than Aarts tonight. Comfortably.
Rioli and George 12 pressure acts each, Aarts 7. Last week Aarts 12, George 18.
Jakes a handy depth player,
but theres too big a gap between best and worst.
To my eye, hes streets ahead in caught with ball numbers. elite.
Its quite extraordinary we lost by a kick, after flying around the world, all our players rooted, and all 3 small forwards playing *smile*.
it suggest WC are not very good at all to me.

Geez Spook, hanging your hat on “pressure acts”.
Arts had 5 tackles, Rioli had 1, Castagna zero tackles. Dunno what Castagna’s pressure acts consisted of..chases maybe?
