Should easily place in their top 5 in the Eagles B&F.

Prescient!

Good on him. was a good move for him even though he had to endure beltings every week. He would've been further down the pecking order whether the emergence of Mcvee ( or maybe we don't get mcvees season if hunt stayed) hunt will get another contract extension you'd think and not sure he would've at Melbourne

 

What a depressing Season that must have been for Hunty. 
Just like Jake Melksham, footy can be very cruel 

Jayden might have been a chance for a game up forward this coming Thursday but I agree that he did the right thing in his move West

I wouldn't recognise half of those players even if they did a dump on my front lawn. *That could be more of a reflection on me

He wasn’t given a choice 😢

But it was the right thing for MFC.  It’s always frustrating when a fan favourite falls outside the best 23.

Agreed. It was the right thing for the Club. But not for him. I was making the distinction because to say he did the right thing moving to the west implies he wanted to go and therefore made a choice to go.

Anyways, he’s gone, and of course everyone here wishes him well. Fourth in their B&F is an achievement of which to be proud. I just miss him ‘s all. 🙁

He will have a more enjoyable season next year. No way WC could be as bad as they were.

Check our Top 10 B and F from ten years ago. Worse than West Coast I would think.

  Lynden Dunn  
  James Frawley  
  Jack Trengove  
  Jeremy Howe

Who’s Dean Terlich? Never heard of him lol.

Stoked for Hunty though, do miss him but glad he’s valued out West.

Most of those names were good players, but Dean Terlich!!! He was seriously one of the least game aware players you have ever seen. 

But Col Sylvia is the sad one. Apart from his early passing, he had every football attribute you could ask for. Possibly the most wasted talent ever at MFC. Absolute gun who couldn't give everything he had to training and playing. O for what could have been!

So does his mum

Col had the power and talent of trac and a better kick for goal. Just never got the best out of himself for many reasons.

One of my favs even if somewhat inconsistent.

Keep in mind he was a big part of our drought breaking premiership year until injured.

In the statistical player ratings i keep he finished 14th that seaso, well inside the top 22.

He then dropped 14 places in 2022 to finish the season in 28th.  If only he was able to follow up his VG 21 season.

Still think we needed to keep one of him or Bedford, or even both.

I’m sure she does Sam. I wonder who Alan will be barracking for Thurs night. He was Pies before JH was drafted. I suspect he’s reverted.

Hopefully he hasn't gone back to the dark side. If he has maybe a an exorcism is needed.

Where else was he gonna go? My point is he didn’t wanna leave us.

Well done Jayden. Based on this glad we didn’t get Gaff!

I’m frankly shocked he didn’t have more suitors. He was one ankle injury away from being a premiership player. 
Essendon for one would have been a good fit. Not that Essendon is better than West Coast… at least he gets good weather in Perth 😂

Very true words. He could beat any opponent with speed and talent. Sadly missed.

i was too, but i think it was lack of finesse and footskills that put a lot of other sides off

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
