Your Say
20/08/2020
Being a Queenslander I had never really worried about any NSW player being unstoppable until Michael Jennings came along. His speed, his stepping, his swerve, his strength and power nothing short of amazing. A brilliant player just wish he was a Queenslander.
26/09/2022
You can't help but think that despite a premiership, 18 Origins and 7 tests, he didn't quite reach the fullest of his potential. Always thought he had as much if not more natural talent than any of the greatest centres of his generation.

Michael Jennings has always been a great clean player and always giving his all, why the NRL could not see that tackle on Saab for what is was, accidental contact with the head, contact was below the shoulders. Saab was slipping down which caused contact with Saab's head
a great players reputation has been tarnished with this oversight
