Jaydon Laverde has been at Essendon for 7 years now.

Whilst his stats over the years aren't great he was riddled by injury in his first four years.

Even this year he suffered an ankle injury that kept him out for a few weeks & only played a total of 6 games.

He has played mainly forward at Essendon, but he was originally drafted as a goalkicking midfielder.

He has played 46 games & is 25 in Apr next year & is 191cm in height.

In the games he has played he has shown he has ability.

He would be a point of difference to our midfield & resting on a flank.

I think we should explore a trade as he has an upside & would benefit from a new Club environment.

    One of those players who looks like he is just about to breakout at any moment.

    Hits the scoreboard often enough to be considered as a delisted free agent but has never played more than 10 games per season. 

    Pass from me. Maybe as a DFA.

    Liked him as a junior but he hasn't really proven he's an AFL player. At 25 he'd wanna get his a** into gear.

    Was it he and his father that told recruiters that he'd only play for Essendon?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
