Just had my kid at Windy Hill for a swim, and was talking to a really old dude, who reckons he is a friend of Jason Laycock, has been since he was a kid, and that Jason told him last week he has been delisted already??? Anyone able to confirm or deny? Shame if true. Seemed like he could have been anything at one stage.
 
Thanks for the heads up.
It's pretty much inevitable. As is the likelihood He will be kept on our Rookie list. I strongly doubt anyone else will want him, too much of a risk...
 
he was drunk at the time apparently (Laycock) and said he'd already been sacked. If they were going rookie him, surely they would keep him on the list until seasons end and then rookie him? that way he rehabs at the club etc??

You don't need to be "in the know" to make a preditction on Laycock being delisted at the end of the year.

Given that Jason grew up in Tasmania, I find it a bit of a co-incidence that the old guy who knew him in Tassie since he has been a kid also moved to the Essendon area.

Exactly my thoughts, while I do think it's inevitable his delisting.
 
Well why didn't you share that piece of knowledge with the supporters ?
Why do the supporters need to know the second the man himself finds out?

Hopeful we retain him as a rookie, since Bellchambers is still developing and Bock's a mile off.

This is what I take out of this. We all knew he'd be delisted at the end of the year. I would've thought that rookie listing him would've been a consideration, however certainly not if they've given him his marching orders already, whilst he should be hitting the rehab.

Even if they weren't considering rookie listing him, which they obviously aren't, I would've thought they'd do him the courtesy of giving him access to the staff and facilities until the end of the year.
 
Essendon would be organising/paying for his rehab. If they are delisting him either party may have wished to do it ouside of the club but it is Essendon's responsibility.
