Brent Tate with QRL chairman Peter Betros last night.


AN emotional Brent Tate had the entire Maroons inner sanctum hanging on every word last night when he accepted the Peter Jackson Memorial Medal in the ANZ Stadium dressing rooms.


Im super stoked to have this, Tate said with his eyes firmly fixed on the medal following Queenslands epic 12-10 win.


I love playing for Queensland, always have.


I remember watching Jacko. I never got to meet him, but to win an award in his name ... Im stoked.


Long-serving Maroons manager Steve Walters said Tate thoroughly deserved the accolade.


Hes had about 55 different injuries, Walters quipped.


He never quits. Wed like to think thats a part of the culture of the Maroons ... you never say die, you never quit, and you wouldnt get a better example of this than this guy.
