I thought he had another good game. Really helped us win the ball inside the clinches, broke tackles and helped us get it outside.

Steven was OK, but he didn't get too much ball forward of center, where he is most dangerous.

The biggest praise I can give him is that I am confident he will play his role every week, and there isn't too many in the team that I would put in the same boat.

Feel like Jacobs got the chocolates today.. just. Only on the back of how damaging he was going the other way with his clearances etc.

Pleasure to watch, seems to have this sense of when his opponent is going to be used at a stoppage and sticks to them extra tight, they take possession and he buries them into the turf a microsecond later. Makes them earn every possession.
