WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JAYDEN HUNT

[whatwhat say what 22,783]

his highlights shows some scintillating pace and some aerial strength in the air.

trust in roos / taylor.

[rpfc 28,526]

He's got zip and confidence from that package.

The chances of someone this deep in the draft making it are slim. I hope we can get a glimpse in the NAB Cup.

[dazzledavey36 54,986]

Wowee the kid can run!

good marking skills above shoulders and good kicking skills. He is listed as 187cm with a massive growth spurt he had this year I wouldn't be surprise if he gets to 190cm..

Would make a good wingman half back flanker.

[DeeZee 7,417]

Very Fyfe like isnt he?

Yep speculative. High risk, high reward. Obviously thought someone was going to nab him down the line.

[Dee Only Way 1]

Like most people i said who!!

But I just watched his highlights package, and those last few runs at the end got me a little excited, he does have some zip!

I know he is a late pick and raw, but hopefully we can develop him

[Young Dee 1,303]

Maybe Roos can start his own Melbourne Academy after we appoint the successor and he can develop Smokies like this.

We have already started this, with Andrew Nichol and Brad Miller, when I spoke to Brad he said he was going to work exclusively with the young guys once the saason is up and running alongside Nichol and of course Welsh at Casey, from what I saw last year at Casey they get along reallly well, so we are already down that track hence the comment from Taylor re 'the development program we have in place"

I know a little about Jayden. Missed a year of footy in year 11 due to a back injury but returned this year and is seen as having significant upside having starred in APS all star type game. Smooth mover and smart bloke. Was captain of the school tennis team and mother was an athlete of reasonable note. Driven.

Jeez that run is very impressive. Looks like a bit ofNat Fyfe in the high marking and running.

[hells bells 2,023]

Agree of the Fyfe comparison. What a dream result that would be.

[Whispering_Jack 30,228]

Just watched his highlights and have to say his pace is electric. Love that we have taken a genuine punt. Speed was obviously the trait underlined on the recruiters whiteboard this year.

Not quite electric but close. He represented an APS school in the open 100 metres sprint which means he's fast.

[whatwhat say what 22,783]

11.1 in the 100m.

That's quick.

This is the type of recruit that earn recruiters their money. Finding value late in the draft from players that have circumstances that cause them to drop - things like injury or in Hunts case, late physical development.

Very true. I really like the look of him but time will tell.

Just for the record where else but "in the air" would one have some aerial strength?

On a TV antenna.

[inRooswetrust 5]

VERY SURPRISED:

Played with him as a junior and saw potential but lack of competitiveness due to size.

Tagged me one game - and for memory I had a day out.

However, he clearly wasn't drafted for his inside grunt work.

I did see him a month ago at my exit meeting and was shocked to see his development body-wise in the space of 12 months.

Tall kid, so I guess I look forward to seeing him develop.

or on the moon

maybe in an alternate universe

or in jack dyer's fertile mind

So what number were you drafted at, or hoping for a rookie spot?

If he answered "pick 40 this year" no doubt he'd suddenly be your favourite poster and you'd PM him nude selfies.

[binman 43,105]

What a stupid (and unnecessarily snide) comment from Satry. His desire to protect 'his boys' from criticism is almost pathological. Jeez a player that hasn't even had his first training session and Satry feels the need to protect him from perceived criticism.

I say perceived because i for one didn't read InRooswetrust's comments as particularly critical, indeed he emphasized he was surprised (as opposed to bagging Hunt).

Besides he was talking from a perspective of having actually played against Hunt (and for that matter played on him) so i imagine he might have a better idea than Satyr might from the 2 mins of highlights on DeeTv.

Or perhaps Satry has been watching Hunt train all year, is good mates and is confident that Hunt is telling the truth when he says he's a gun.

Couldn't agree more.
