All the best for Jayden. Careers don't last long so make the most you can.

Dees obviously have plans for half back and a wish to bring new players etc.

Pick 52 is a bit skimpy but we may be able to put it to good use.

Melbourne list manager Tim Lamb thanked Hunt for his commitment and contribution to the Demons.

"Jayden has been an excellent contributor to our club over a sustained period," Lamb said.

"He played an important role for us at half-back over the last couple of years and was unlucky to miss out on 2021 premiership having suffered an ankle injury in round 21 of that year.

"We are rapt for him that he has the opportunity to continue his career at West Coast and we wish him all the best in the next chapter."

Well we drafted JH at pick 57 in the 2013 and T-Mac was acquired at pick 53 so you never know.  Harmes was a rookie

At a guess we might bundle the pick looking to get into a better position for our 3rd or 4th pick in the draft

🤮🤮🤮🤮that’s usually said when a player has been perennially injured and likely to be delisted 

compo is 3rd round likely pick 52-54 🤮🤮🤮🤮. A player who played 42 out of a possible 46 games across two years for a team that finished premiers and 2nd across the two years. He’s a push/giveaway effectively for very little in return .

or he can keep his source to himself and keep providing information.  He has some form from the past and gets some inside info. if you don't want to read it either ignore him or block him but others like me want to hear it

Thanks for the sage advice, I'll take that onboard however I will remain cynical when people make statements and then won't back them up. I posted that Hunt wasn't happy and that's because that's what he told Mrs Dw at the B&F. She should have asked him if he knocked back a 2 yr deal several weeks ago and then we might or might not have some clarity. By the by I'm not asking him not to post information but if it's from a report in the Media I think it's far enough that that is stated. If it's a confidential source he could always state that instead of being ........ defensive.

Knowing it was definitely gonna happen doesn’t make this any easier. Especially when one stupidly harboured a faint hope right until the end that he somehow might stay. 
Of course just like everyone else I sincerely wish him well, but that’s one game I know I won’t be attending next season, ie. the first time he plays against us. 😔

Very disappointed. I loved watching Hunt play. Yes, his kicking at full pace was full of errors. This is not unusual across the footy world, it is just that Jayden played at full pace so often so therefore - more clangers. I wish him all the best but am genuinely sad to see him in another jumper.

Jayden Hunt is a great lad. Never shirked. Had a great 2021 and was very unfortunate to get injured a month out from finals. Deserved a premiership medallion (I don't like the convention that only those who play on the day get a medallion. He was a major contributor across the season and deserved a medal imv)

I hate the Eagles but I wish you well Jayden. All the best

Beautifully said Maldon.  My thoughts exactly.  Maybe not the silk / finish we would have hoped for but still one of my favs to watch.

A big thank you to Hunty for everything he gave in the red & blue.  Including playing in the bulk of matches during 2021, most.of them wins, that helped us grab the ultimate prize.  Will never forget.

Going to miss the initial bursts out of traffic, the chase down tackles, breaking lines and ...the headband!

Good luck son and all the best with everything from here.

100% BDA. Alongside chunk & to some degree Tomo, he was certainly one that would feel very unlucky to have missed out.

Especially a western ‘burbs ranga! 

You can put the farm on it (livestock and chattels included).

I’ll even book an ambo for Luci before we start brawling. It’s the least I can do.

I think Jayden is someone we all universally want to see do well. I hope he’s leaving with no hard feelings and I certainly would love nothing more than to see him do really well at West Coast (although I despise that club).

I feel for Jayden. He’s been on the edge of our team for the best part of 5 years. That’s a hard place to be. Over the last couple of years when he made mistakes you could see him beating himself up about it.

I hope he can play with the freedom that makes him so great to watch when he’s up and about.
