But Jason is a great player too and he had another great game on the weekend.Jason has been one of the best performers as a forward over the past two seasons.We all know he is a key component to the Cowboys success.(Johnathan) Thurston, (Lachlan) Coote and (Michael) Morgan all rely heavily on their forward pack, particularly Jason, to get some momentum for them to play some footy off the back off and we are well aware of that.North Queensland beat Melbourne at AAMI Park in the preliminary final last year on their way to their maiden title.Taumalolo was key in that triumph and will be crucial again this year to the premiers chances of becoming the first side to win back-to-back titles since Brisbane in 1992-93.Smith knows Taumalolos influence on Saturday can only be curtailed so much.You are not going to take Jason Taumalolo out of the game, Smith saidHe is that good a player, you just have to reduce the impact that he does have.
