Saints Premiers 2008 · Tue 14 Oct 2008 2:06pm

One of those players caught in no-mans land between AFL and VFL. Doubt whether he will be picked up, but will have a substantial career at the lower level.

Any source? Any further info?

Anyone else been delisted?

I wish Jayden all the best. Good luck mate!

i think this place is going to go into raptures possibly matched by a gf win if fiora is shown the door

I can't help but feel a bit disappointed for the kid.

We met him in the victory room through the season and he seemed a nice kid.
I only saw him play a few times including when he did his knee and he looked o.k and promising.

Did we really see enough of him to know he won't cut it ?
Obviously the club did.

speak for yourself-

I personally do not Underrate any SAINT and wish them all the best,
If true sad- I really liked what he had been able to do pre injury,

i respect each and every player...but i can't comprehend why you wouldn't underrate them...everyone does it

Probably made worse that he was told he had secured a contract (verbally at least) two weeks before he did his knee

it was a contract for the next year as a rookie if im not mistaken

he was taken as a rookie and elevated, he was never a member permanently of the main list

Good Luck Jaydn for the future. Be proud that you got to wear the saints jumper !!

Correct but he was told he would be before he did his knee.

wheres the source?

HarveysDeciple · Tue 14 Oct 2008 3:10pm

sometimes timing can be everything.

Bad luck on the knee injury mate, it denied you the chance to try and make it further in the game.

Best of luck with everything you do from here.

RoseInOz · Post: # 663512Post **RoseInOz** » Tue 14 Oct 2008 3:25pm

I think that is a real shame. I liked the way he played with the Lions and I was also impressed by him with the Saints before he injured his knee. I think we have worse players than him at the moment.

fonz_#15 · Post: # 663517Post **fonz_#15** » Tue 14 Oct 2008 3:33pm

it's a cut throat industry and unfortunately St.Kilda have made the decision that is best for the club.
he was never a world beater, and the injury just made him weaker.

good luck with your future endeavours Jayden, you seemed like a nice enough kid.

Spinner · Post: # 663522Post **Spinner** » Tue 14 Oct 2008 3:40pm

Disappointed in that - All the best Jay!

james rose · Post: # 663525Post **james rose** » Tue 14 Oct 2008 3:48pm

might end up a mature age rookie for someone if he tears it up at a lower level?

HSVKing · Post: # 663526Post **HSVKing** » Tue 14 Oct 2008 3:51pm

What a joke... Surely some other players on our list should have gone before him.

He was beating West Coast by himself that night (holding the likes of Cousins and Kerr), and when he did his knee the game turned.

Mountains of talent we could have continued to prosper from (in tagging and shut down roles especially).

Shame Saints... Shame.
