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.

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.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
