and we released Jazz who is enjoying the fresh air of the northern beaches - see his interesting interview on the Manly website.

The/Us Warriors looked after him really well and Jazz loved his time here.

Ehm, the interview gives me the sh!ts. He straight-up says "I sorta felt like I was a bit comfortable at the Warriors, footy was plateauing, I didn't really want to step out of my comfort zone and was sort've happy with where I was at."

Wtf! Sooooo... he trained hard at say 90 - 99%... just not extremely fu(king hard at 101 - 110%?!! Was he slipping in a Dig at the Conditioning Coach/s (and or All the Coaches for that matter.) Not only does he Know he let his Fans down by shooting his big toe off, he's opened up a can! He also wished he'd made the change a lot sooner than he did. Hough, good luck Jazz. You may not need it but thanks for the in-house heads-up.

I'd like to know why he said all that because he didn't Really have to. Many ex-players just talk shop and say that they needed a change. If JAZZ was fu(king comfortable then I got to ask "Whom Else is!??" If anyone else is... nah that'll do me.

Good recruiting manly.

I wonder if TMM will be in the running for the Parra #6 jersey next year??
He would be a good pick up ‘outside ‘ Moses.

Has he ever looked good at six?

Has he ever looked good at six?

No. Especially outside SJ

Was part of the 2017 run to the GF with the Cowboys playing at 6. Was surrounded by a lot of quality though
