For the record I havn't forgotten what he offers us. I'm well aware of how solid he was the season he made his origin debut.
A part of what made him good back then also was his durability and dependability. I'm just asking the question... The 3 year contract is a bit of a risk for someone who has been injury prone lately. And people talking up his passion.. Go read the articles that were around last time he was off contract about how he was prepared to leave if Knights didn't offer him a good contract.
i do like this about his character. hunger, determination and the courage to have a crack are his strongest assets.I loved that story Brian Smith told about the first thing that happened when he arrived at the club Jimmy wanted to talk to him, and asked him what he had to do to make firstgrade - so Smith told him, and Jimmy did it.
Every time we have asked Jimmy to learn a skill or do a job, he has done it.
He isn't the most gifted athlete ever, but if we had 17 guys as professional as Jimmy the coach could phone it in - he wouldn't be needed.
No, I'm very positive it was him. He wanted a good paying contract and was prepared to leave to get it.TBH mate I dont recall reading anything like this. You sure it was Jimmy, not another player? :?

Obviously he has said all the right things now though that he is re-signed.
Just wanted to remind those who I felt were targeting me with the "short memory" talk.

Seems you guys are right, I tried to quickly search for that article, but it's just this one: http://forums.leagueunlimited.com/sh...manus+contract
