What some of the Essendon fans had to say:
Didn't play many games but showed some terrific signs, particularly with his excellent disposal, marking and pace. (Joe Curtain)
When he got his chance he used his speed to run and clear the ball out of the defence. (Nathan Beever)
Strong, cool under pressure, and is deceptively quick. (Graham Evans)
Showed some real promise at the end of the season, happy to take on a big job and will only improve from here. (Brad Sparkes)
His composure and cool head when he's got the ball is a real feature of his game. (Nick Rudich)
From his limited senior appearances Jay seemed to get his share of disposals and showed hardness at the ball, he needs to prove he can nullify opponents to confirm a senior spot. (Rodney Broadbent)
This could be the year that Jay can establish himself as a senior player, now that he was able to gain valuable experience in the seniors last year. (Lorraine Day)
