Jackson takes D'Rhys Miller under his wing

[Bulldog_4_Life]

Bulldogs star Josh Jackson has been acting as a mentor to promising backrower D’Rhys Miller.

Continuing the legacy of what his mentors like David Stagg, Frank Pritchard and Dene Halatau did for him when he first came into grade, Jackson has taken Miller, a graduate of the NYC, under his wing this year.

The backrower has made the decision to impart his wisdom as the veterans did to him in hopes of influencing a young man’s career.

“I knew what it was like for me coming through the grades so where I can, I help,” Jackson said.

“Dene Halatau was awesome for me. He made sure I was on the same page, always there for a chat. If I had a few questions I’d go and ask him and he’d be happy to answer.”

Good on him, he'd be a pretty good mentor to have, hope he can help develop a few carbon copies of himself.... that would be handy.

Miller and Strickland ... two guys to keep an eye on.

Are they better than Elliot

Jackson your a legend

First off I think it's terrific that a stand out club man takes the responsibility to guide an up and coming star through his early times in first grade. This has a two fold benefit as it will 1) help to produce a top young forward and 2) increase the team's morale.

This is good stuff.

hopefully it means miller will be less likely to leave like our other huge potential forwards the last few years

 

[Moedogg]

Give him the captaincy already..,

No one is better than Elliot man

The favourite part of my week is watching Elliott 5 min cameo of one hit up for 5m and two flop tackles.

The man!

I can't understand how Jackson isn't captain! He is clearly a leader, seems to be able to keep his temperament and can communicate well
