#29 Jayden Hunt - joins WCE as a free agent, pick 52 compo

[Bluelegs]

Just realised how much better watching the game would be if there was option to sync the game audio to Super Mario Bros.

Dean Kent?

Kent's got decent pace but he's not in that league.

So Hunt is faster than Dean? This is pleasing.

IMO yes, on Garlett's level.

IMO yes, on Garlett's level.

Yeah sweet.. hopefully we can find out on Sunday if he comes in and plays with confidence. Didnt get too many clear possessions from what I saw in his NAB games.. maybe we can get him out in the open on the big spaces at the G

I reckon he's in to fill in for Garlett, I wanted him running off a back flank.

 

[Decimation]

He is faster than Garlett. He has been our entrant in the Grand Final sprint.

 

[blured]

Good luck to the young man. I'm expecting at least one goal in blistering run of the half back flank

 

[d33my]

Keen to see him. Hope he has a good game.

 

[Sylvia Saint]

Interestingly he said in an interview that he has put 13kg on since arriving at the club.

 

[The Dr]

Good today. Very good. Goes hard, obviously quick when he gets some space.

Holds his place for next week imo.

 

[Dwhale44]

Onya Jayden! Hope you had the fam in the room post game, lap it up!

 

[Bluelegs]

IMO yes, on Garlett's level.

Hunt is faster, Garlett has better acceleration

 

[Theseventhhamster]

Hunt is faster, Garlett has better acceleration

Sounds about right.

 

[d33my]

Should hold his spot next week. Was maybe half a step off the pace of AFL standard footy but didn't seem outclassed in terms of going at the ball.

 

[RandB]

Wasn't over awed, in fact, he was enjoying himself out there.

Could be a player.

He waited a long time for this and had a red hot dip. Loved he's speed and agility but he's hunger to impact most defensive contests in the first half, did fatigue a bit in the second half but a still a very good performance for a first game, and he's earned it

 

[deeco]

Kid runs so fast he's gone 30m before he even realises

Had a dip and was all over the field, good game bloke, keep it up

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Reminds me of Sam Blease but can kick a drop punt.

Thought he was excellent early, not afraid to win the hard ball/put his head over it either which was a nice surprise, didnt look out of place at all.

Good show young lad.

 

[Praetorian]

There was a period late in the game where even the commentators noted he made it to about 7 consecutive contests in the space of a minute. He's pretty fit, doesn't look soft in the slightest and looked very comfortable out there for a 1st gamer.

 

[Sando22]

Didn't look out of place one bit and continued to have a go after a few early blues.
Liked his game.

 

[Captain Jack]

Good on him for a solid debut. I remember how skinny he was when he first arrived - classic project player, and tbh I didn't give him much of a chance of playing a game, let alone making it. Good to see he seems to have developed well and could be a solid player for us.

Can't believe no one has mentioned the cape. That was glorious

In mid Capril no less!

I know there are at least a few people on here that will get that.
