2015 Player Review - # 29 Jayden Hunt

in Melbourne Demons

The speedy outside midfielder/flanker whose career to date has been blighted by a back injury started the long haul back in the development league at Casey. Showed some promise in the senior team in the latter half of the year as a goal sneak and shared the club's goal kicking with Max King but needs to introduce more consistently during matches.

    I'm not sure where Jayden Hunt is in terms of the team's list. His progress has been slowed by various injuries and he has shown some glimpses of speed and polish as a footballer but in the games I've seen, they're only glimpses and he has too many quiet periods during which he seemingly vanishes from the game. This could be due to the history of injuries which might affect his ability to see out games but it's a definite question mark that I have over him at this stage and it wouldn't surprise me if he was delisted with a view to being rookied if available in the rookie draft. To my mind, he has a lot of developing to do before he can be AFL quality.

    To be honest i am still underwhelmed with Hunt. Has speed but he struggle to even get up to no more then 10 disposals. Showed a few glimpse here and there but not sure he has the tools to be an AFL player. He fits the term of athlete first, footballer second..

    If we need to make more room on our list i would say Hunt would be first to go along. I personally wouldn't rookie list him either.

    If he'd been injury free for the two years i'd say delist. But given the injuries he has had and the little glimpses he has got to show. Throw in his speed that we lack, i say he's worth re-rookie listing.

    Still hope he can make it.

    He flies under the radar as he wasn't a high draft pick.

    Few here would actually know where he is up to.

    He was as I recall a bit of a surprise selection in the first place.

    Will leave it to our professional experts to asses his worth going forward.

    I can't see the value to keeping someone who (a) can barely get on the field and (b) barely touches the ball even at lower levels. No way I would keep him on the senior list, but maybe a last round rookie selection if the club thinks he is over his injury problems and there isn't another Vandenberg style pick available..

    Was spotted when the recruiters were watching Salem at Brighton Grammer. I think it was Robert Shaw that said you should look at this kid. Has pace to burn and good attitude. Injuries have been a problem.

    Except he can kick too. I would rookie him.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
