Hunt is a professional athlete like Jordan and Tiger Woods.

Was it a fluke when Jordan jumped from the foul line and dunked it?

Was it a fluke when Tiger hit a 30ft put toย win the under 16 world championship and announce himself to the world?

Honestly one of the worst posts I have read on demonland and I have been reading since the merger talk.

Comparing Jayden Hunt to Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan is the stupidest thing I've read on Land ever.

Leo Barry fluked a mark once.

If a professional athlete does a dead on the field it is part of their craft.

Huntโ€™s torp was one of the greatest kicks I have seen. Up there with Blights.

Nice spelling/grammar.

It was a great kick. It does not make his foot disposal great overall.

Let it go. You look foolish.

Only one looking foolish is you. Was a deliberately kicked torp after the siren that went through post height from the wing a fluke?

Welcome to highlight all my grammatical and spelling errors it doesnโ€™t help your poor arguments.

Hunt is a conundrum.ย  He does have genuine AFL attributes.ย  He's like a cricketer who needs to hone his game and remove the errors.

It's a coaching and development challenge, but I like what Hunt offers and can see him still being an important part of the team.ย  There's no reason he still can't improve.

I think the club holds a similar view 'Pro',ย as do I for what it's worth.

Any talk of a trade was quickly knocked on the head...

I look forward to seeing what he brings this year.

Hunt is highly regarded by Goodwin and co. - how do I know this? (Considering this isnโ€™t coming from a board member I โ€˜knowโ€™ nor talking to staff at training...)

Because they played him against Sydney after being out for an extended period. They rushed him in because heโ€™s a point of difference or just better than similar players we have.

He will earn his games this year thatโ€™s for sure. The wing/HBF will have some pretty handy players fighting for spots; Lewis, Jones, Stretch, Fritsch, KK, Salem, and Smith with Hore and Wagner behind those above. Some will have to find a place elsewhere or stay at Casey.

Canโ€™t wait to see him on a wing.

If Hunt can return to form and claim the other wing we could go from no/average wings to seriously dangerous wings. Hunt for elite pace, KK for elite kicking. Hereโ€™s hoping one or both of them can stay injury free and build consistency!

Some great upsides to look forward to with these two, LT.

Some great upsides to look forward to with these two, LT. Thinking of Hunt, in particular, he may well be an answer to a role for a 2nd wingman/outside mid. His pace contributions are best when in possession of the ball - and the related gaining of ground before disposal by hand or foot. However, his pace and such an opportunity for ground with such pace is not fully utilised when it might well be - certainly more frequently than running 'with the ball'. He should be given opportunities to run to space the receive, himself - and he is a mighty kick when lined up - leading an opponent metres behind as he dredges space on the ground with that pace to receive within that space. He is an all-out attack machine in this role.

Was KK recruited to play on the wing?

Hard to say, he was probably recruited for outside run but they were probably were hoping his defense and contested ball winning was a bit better. From what he has shown so far we can only really risk him as a forward at the moment.

ย 

He was recruited as spelling practice for the players.ย  I believe the closest some have come is 'Kolojashknee'.

You recruit players because you think they have the right traits to play the game not especially one position but yes he spent the whole summer training with the mids to play wing and looked pretty good in uncontested drills at training. The groin injury was a set back and he had 2 pretty awful games. Plus the concussion issue raising its head again (pardon the pun).

Need to sort that out and get him playing consistent footy in the VFL, anything more than that would be a bonus for this year.

Hope he can find some form and get back in the team as we really need his pace and run.ย  May have to play him off half back for a while.


Reminds me of a non-descript or unmemorable player of the early 80's that played 12 games.ย  Yes he may have kicked 2 (joe the gooses) when we had a 4 goal breeze against the lowly Fitzroy at the G on a sunny day, but ....meh.

Hope I am wrong.

Like Mayย he has talent but will injuries including his concussion allow him to string enough games at a senior level to achieve the consistency required at the senior level ?ย ย 

ย 

Injuries aside the Suns did not fight hard to keep KK. Was a little surprised by all those who over the pre season had him as an automatic best 22.

He might make it but at present he is just showing how bad our fringe players in this area are. Can anyone remind me how long the initial signing was of KK.

Hope he makes it but I'm not hanging out for it. Same for that matter goes for Stretch who we all hope makes it but the signs aren't good.

It doesn't look good the same problems he had at Gold Coast hasn't come on like we hoped, no longer in our best 22 (if he ever was, he was in mine). Hoping he can overcome his issues but it doesn't look like it at this stage.

Nice of you to give him a bit of time... please remind me of how long heโ€™s been with the club and how many games heโ€™s played at any level.

80 games is enough to make an immediate impact and he hasn't with his 2 underwhelming games and now he has his concussion issues again as I said it doesn't look good you don't get much time in football.

Give him time. He's had only 2 games with us and hasn'tย played much footy over the last couple of years. Will get a mix of Casey and senior games this season (injuries permitting).

Was a sensation in his 2nd year, that ability doesn't just disappear.

Only a fool would write him off at this stage

Yeah, sounds like a guy who came third in last yearโ€™s Brownlow. Also sounds a little like a certain co-captain that many wanted moved on early in his career (probably the same softcox that want him moved on now... or at least up until last Friday).

Word from the Suns is that they are thrilled with their Super fit young group and are happy to have moved older players on.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
