AFL Player #15: Jayden Laverde

[Beerfish]

Contract Status: Unrestricted Free Agent 2025
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 7, Nuggs Bunny

 

[DERO]

Going?

 

[MattyB3150]

If we had enough available players in defense do you think we would give him another crack forward?
The thing i loved about Sheeds was that he wasn't afraid to mix things up...even if it was just briefly to get the opposition off guard. Even for 10 minutes just swap Langford and Laverde to see how it looks. Langford obviously in horrible form up forward. We couldn't be any worse....right?

I've always said our forward line needs more mediums.

Going?

To Ibiza the day after the season ends?

 

[Petrify]

Is he the biggest single liability in defense in the history of the AFL?

Ball in hand his brain looks like this:

Gives away free kicks constantly.

Don't think he's ever won a 1 on 1 in his life.

Lmao of course we nearly lost the game because he gave away a dumb free kick.

And this was before he dropped a sitter then immediately gave away a free kick.

Absolute joke of a player

 

[naraku]

Any chance he calls it a day?

we won mate - relax with the Laverde hate - hang shit on brad scott for making davey the sub!

he'd likely play on for another year or so at another club if we dont re-sign

 

[Bjchan13]

He's still got a contract for next year. Will/should be depth with either of Reid/Hayes taking his place.

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

I've watched footy for 27 years. That might be the single worst performance I've ever seen from an individual.

i mean, it's not like McKay was a lot better and I'm pretty sure there's a salary difference which makes that a bit concerning. cox got embarrassed in a couple of contests which obviously explains why Laverde needs to hang around for a bit more because it's better for Laverde to be down there than it is Cox. it was a very rough game for all of them

 

[Megabattimus]

He's only playing because Reid is made of glass.

[mike14]

Does he get a week for the gut punch? Such a brain-dead play after dropping a sitter

 

[Ambrosia]

Has been horrible since we rested him

Who cares if we won. That was absolutely the worst performance from a defender in the red and black that I can recall and I've been a member for 30 years.

obviously winning the game does not mean we can't fairly criticise players. he had a horrid game.

ariel steinberg off the hook

(idk, that was the first guy I could think of. maybe those games where Sheedy burnt Kep. actually come to think of it, Kep is the rare guy for who the "failed forward, let's send him down back" tactic didn't work.)

 

[Petrify]

Lmao he had 4 frees against (one 50), 6 clangers and wait for it... ZERO meters gained.

He played 91% of the game and gained 0 meters.

The next lowest on our team was Alwyn Davey who had 17 meters gained after being subbed, then Nick Bryan who had 88 meters gained and was subbed, after that it was Cox with 107 meters.

So not only did he give up crucial free kicks, he literally resulted in the ball going backwards for us more than forwards.

Zantuck was pretty special but Laverde's game today was pretty ordinary. Injuries to Ridley, Baldwin and Reid have been kind to him.

I've been a member for 31 years, so my dick is bigger

I saw this comment on Reddit and came to post the exact same thing lol.

 

[Jobe Watson]

Shit for brains.

 

[MarkJohnson#1]

Have a spell son

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Hayes must be bordering on delistment if he isn't getting a game ahead of Laverde.

Diabolical today. Nearly cost us.
