      Hopefully just a case of homesick and a lost desire.

        How do the AFL determine what pick a club gets when something like this happens?

          Ladder order, usual draft procedure.

            Oh that sucks. I liked that kid a lot. Hope he's ok, and hasn't got himself into any trouble. All the best young fella.

              My understanding of the matter is that he doesn't have the passion to be a full time AFL player and was really homesick. Maple flew up to Westen Australia about 2 weeks ago to try to convince him to come back but had no luck.

                Same, I wish him the best. Sad to see him go hopefully whatever ails him rights intself with the love and support of his family around him.

                  Something that serious can only really involve a handful of things, and none of them are pleasant.
                  Such a pity as I loved the kid. Wish you all the best J.S.

                    I know his wellbeing is the most important thing here but........crap, we lose another promising youg bloke. We've lost some talent in the off season haven't we?
                    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

                      If that is the case, very glad that it isn't a serious issue. But then why did we delist him so suddenly, when we could have easily kept him on the list and helped him sort through his personal issues? If they were to remain unresolved, then we could have orchestrated a trade to one of the Perth clubs or delisted him prior to next year's ND. And when we interviewed him last year prior to the ND, did we do all of our due diligence in relation to potential homesickness factors?

                      Really disappointing news.

                        Re: Jayden Schofield - Delisted

                        Seems very strange to me that we delisted and effectively closed the book on him.

                        How can turning your back on someone be the best way to support them???

                          Sounds like there must be a little more to this than just lost the passion, otherwise we would have handled it differently I imagine?

                            Hypothetically, if there's depression involved, about all we could do to support him is to let him go home. Again, pure speculation.

                              The decision to retain Addison makes more sense with this news.

                                We could let him go home and keep him on the longterm injury list. Elevate a rookie.

                                I loved this kids attitude and it really is a shame but it is just so sudden that it spikes my interest.

                                Either way I hope he is ok.
