Giants midfield is a bit toast atm, could we be looking at a 30 disposal game from Jed?
I would accept nothing less than a repeat of Ryan Bastinac’s 45 touch performance against this opposition on this ground, considering Jed cost us Basti as well as 2 first rounders and Burton.

I'm genuinely happy for him. (I've followed this thread since day 1, always been a fan). Hope he can keep it up.

I remember meeting him at training early in his time at Hawthorn, he was still a kid - I remember him telling me his partner was pregnant (I was carrying my baby daughter at the time) and he was super concerned about if he'd be a good enough dad. I told him the sheer fact he was worried about being a good dad meant he would be.

We all love our club's players, but some are just good people too. Jed didn't have the media training of a Sammy or Bateman, but he was just a genuinely good kid who had time for everybody.

He was legitimately one of the worst players who played 20+ games for the club Ive ever seen.
Has come from the clouds.

Gone from a fumbly half forward to a very good inside mid. A two way runner as well which we haven’t been blessed with many.
