Has announced his retirement at the end of the season, a modern great, a Huddersfield legend and one of if not THE best winger in the world a few years back, also an absolute lovely gentleman.

What a career, enjoy your retirement Jez!!!

Worked hard and had the talent to turn himself into a top top player. As you say for a spell right up there with the best in the world.

An absolute top man and still better than the wingers we have currently. All the very best Jerry

Being a nice fella is under rated.

I can only imagine that some opposition wingers had nightmares the day before a game.

I just wish that he is not lost to the game, after retirement.

Great player was probably at his peak circa Workd Cup Final.

I'll keep reiterating this. Players should be celebrated at the SL Grand Final as they do in the NRL.

Been a class act for Wakey this year. 

Hope Powell manages his appearances to ensure he's fit for the playoffs.

[Just Browny]

Terrific player and individual.

Being a great person miles more important than being a great sportsman if you have to choose tbh.

Great that he’s both.

My thoughts exactly.

[graveyard johnny]

its shame he's a bit too young to sign for Hull FC for a couple of seasons

[Waynebennettswinger]

Top player and nice guy. Spoke with his family at matches a few times and they all come across as genuinely nice people. As others say hope he stays in the game.

Thought for a minute the former England coach was managing his career there.

Well done JM. Generally consistent, loyal and a great servant to the game of RL and in particular Huddersfield Giants. The likes of yourself and Leroy Cudjoe are quickly becoming RL collectors items. Loyalty is hard to find these days! Happy well deserved retirement and enjoy your kids sporting careers amongst other things.respect.

Can’t better this.

We’ve been lucky to have had him in our sport 

[N2022]

There are few that last as long as JM has done at that level, and even fewer who earn 17 England caps ...

A great player and a career to be proud of. Well done, sir.
