Get him out of the forwardline.

Having a cursed player, play in the Essendon version of the Bermuda Triangle is a recipe for disaster.

Darcy Daniher, Courtney Johns, Scott Gumbletron, Jason Winderlich, Jayden Laverde and the entire 2019 forward line, even Lloyd couldn’t catch a trick in the back half of his career. Hird copped more than his share of strange injuries too. Then there is Coleman way back when.

Just really shattered for Jayden. I am an unashamed fan of his footballing.

Did it just look like a regulation 3-4 week hamstring injury?

6643

Seriously bad news for the guy. Just when he was showing such promise and a spot was open for him to come in.

6644

… for the Nth time!

I’ve seriously lost count now.

6645

Relax.
Just a knock to the hamstring.

6646

Is this true? As in he got a knock?

6647

Nah, are you familiar with the Myers β€˜just a knock to the calf’ medical report from 5 or so years ago ?

6648

No such thing as an Essendon 4 week hammy.

6649

Really?

6650

Ffs
Kids need extended, uninterrupted run of games, week after week. Otherwise they really struggle to reach potential. Very disappointed for him.

6651

Its probably never going to happen. Some people’s bodies just cannot cope. Jayden is pretty much a great example of this

Be a miracle if he carves out a successful career, imo. Not doubting his ability for a second though

Nah, there have been heaps of players who were injury prone early in their careers, and as they matured physically, they became more durable.
Myers and Hooker off the top of my head.

Edit - Moore of Collingwood - should they have given up on him? Rohan? Wood from Bluedogs (I just can’t remember his first name).

Saints will give us a second rounder. We should take it and run.

6655

Physically mature? He’s a specimen. He’s no kid

He looks at the pill and gets injured. Fk me i hope he gets a run at it desperatly, i rate him. But on all available evidence, he probably wont.

6656

At least he’s generally BOG before getting injured. Worth persisting with.
