I said at the game, I am so glad he plays for us, every team in SL would want Connor in their team, you sometimes don't know what you've got till you lose it. We should celebrate Jake and enjoy every moment. What a player, we will go from strength to strength this season.
My pre-season hope of a winning home record and to make the play offs in a rebuilding season is coming to fruition, happy days. And I have to say 3pm weekend kick offs are fantastic.
I’ve never really bought the Connor to the NRL rumour, I’m sure sides have looked into the possibility of getting him over there though.
He’s been pretty open and brave to talk about how losing his dad at a young age hit him really hard and how it’s something he is still dealing with. The fact he himself somewhat recently became a dad and how close he is to his family probably means moving to the other side of the world isn’t gonna happen.
Canberra will also do their due diligence after their experiences with Bateman & Williams.
I remember him saying in an interview that he considered himself a "homebody" and had no ambitions to go down under. The bloke could have had a change of heart, especially with the sums of money chucked about in the NRL. I wouldn't blame him. But I find the rumours of him moving to Hull more believable.
