Jayden Brailey discussion

[Newygirl]

Nice to see Brailey back and get through the game ok. His service was an immediate improvement. The sooner he can back to playing longer minutes the better.

Hopefully Hastings leg is ok too and he just needs some time because we’re not doing anything with KP and 3 fringe first graders in the spine.

Ideally at some point this season Pryce can take the 6 jersey as well. We really need another spine that’s closer to KP’s talent level to be any real threat.

Not sure if anyone else heard it, but Jayden was just interviewed on ABC Grandstand. Great to hear him happy and loving life again.

Jayden and Blayke both on the Matty Johns show tonight.

Brailey played great on Friday. I had forgotten how good his service from dummy half is

 

[Celticman98]

Far from his best tonight. Have a feeling all those injuries are starting to catch up with him.

when it comes to recruitment we all seem to overlook the hooker role, but surely its and area we need to start looking at, been a long time since we have produced a decent out n out 9

Easy to say now. But man I wished tried to sign Harry Grant back in 2019/20 when he was trying to get a release from the Storm before he got loaned to the Tigers.

I rate Brailey but Grant is a once in generation player that we should have made a play for at the time. Grant and Ponga would have made a great duo at clubland as well as state as we saw in 2022.

Injuries really did ruin Jayden's career. Was good in 2021 after his first ACL injury but his knee injuries in 2022-23 really slowed him down afterwards.

His form really did fall off a cliff unfortunately and while he was never a creative hooker at his peak, his limitations on attack eg poor short grubber kicks were noticed later on.

I'm glad he didn't come here.

AOB in charge his career would have suffered damage by the time he left here.

Did you see Harry Grant at the Tigers? The dude is too good for any head coach to “ruin”. He’s a guy who makes it very easy for the coach. Just let him cook.
