Jed Anderson MIA

[Hawk Vision]

Where is the lad? Not on the injury list, not playing and no news from the club. Hope he is ok and whatever is wrong getting what support he needs from the club to overcome it.

 

[Brishawk]

Injured a couple of weeks ago at box hill. This week we played a few up from development squad so maybe rested jed so he was 100% next week.

This. The few AFL games he's played this year I've felt he's looked off the pace in terms of decision making. Given the time he's spent out of the game at his age he's going to have to work pretty hard to get that game sense back I think.

Disappointing year for him.

From the BHH reports is being over-shadowed in the 'bests' by Simpkin, McEvoy, Woody and Sicily.

something clearly not right with Jed even if he is currently out with a legitimate injury.

 

[threesixpio]

Was the big hope for this year. Hopefully finds a bit of form in the second half of the year.

He was out with a sore back a few weeks ago, better to give him time to recover rather than rush him. He's no good to us coming into his prime a rundown hack. Have a little patience, guys.

 

[Hawk Vision]

I had him down as a Hodge replacement in a few years after his NAB cup form. I hope his form is injury related and not something else

Unfortunately Jedi's absence is not entirely injury related. Will not elaborate. Hopefully he will be back playing shortly!

Well, I hope he and his family are OK

 

[Gralin]

Jed was at the Hawks v * game the other week being interviewed by Dipper on the ground before the game looked pretty happy so hoping all is well with him and his family.

The kid could be anything, I think we all got a bit ahead of ourselves about what a year out out of footy would do to him. I would like to see him get through the rest of this year unscathed and build his fitness and form at BH

I think most of us feared as much...

 

[walhawk]

Like Whitecross, Ando should forget about Hawthorn in 2015 and concentrate on getting right for 2016. Neither deserved AFL games this season.
If fit, this includes consistent VFL form - especially in the finals series.
He still has plenty of time to make it, but it won't be 2015.

Hopefully not homesick to the point of taking off. Had a hard life losing his Dad so young and now being a young dad that could tap into stuff. Loved his 2013. Hope he comes back and kicks some ass

 

[Thaihawk]

From interviews I've seen of Jed, he comes across as a fine young man, and I feel sure he is doing what he considers the best in his own mind. Personally, I hope to see him back as soon as he feels he is ready, mentally and physically. All the best Jed.

 

[Hodginator]

My hopes of him winning this years Rising Star, Brownlow and Norm Smith and starting to slip away.

Mitchell won the jj liston with just 11 games. and BOG in the GF in the same year, so there's some hope.

 

[PNess]

Not sure why he hasn't come on as expected this year. My fear was that being talked up so much (even by the Chieftain!) he might have inflated his opinion of himself a little much, a la Mitch Thorp.

The one BHH game I've watched live he played his work rate didn't seem that high.

Whatever the reason, I hope he manages to get the best out of himself and that his bad run of luck is out of the way.

Let's not cast aspersions on the guy until we know what's going on behind the scenes.

 

[Gralin]

Fagan said his back is still settling down and they hope he is back playing in the next week or two

 

[Hawks1994]

Was it Jed who had the fairly serious illness last year?

Missed 2014 with pneumonia, then a shoulder.

Let's not cast aspersions on the guy until we know what's going on behind the scenes.

Aspersions? I'm just stating what my fear about him has been the last couple months based on what very little we did know and see (hype, down on work rate, bit of lairising).

In light of recent suggestions on social media that he's missing home I have a new fear to replace it!

Named for Box Hill.
Don't worry about Jed. Will be a star. Just not in 2015

 

[marklar]

Named for Box Hill.

Yeah, but so has everyone; I might even be named on the bench.

 

[RustyHawk]

Trained with the full squad (minus Roughie) on Thursday, looked ok.
