Small midfielder/forward with elite speed and power. Excelled at stoppages and was able to push forward and kick some important goals for his team. Indigenous player who was a member of the Flying Boomerangs in 2012. Won the Vic Metro MVP, TAC Cup coaches award and U18 All-Australian honours in 2015.
Tony Elshaug says:
“Jade played for the Northern Knights. He played in defence last year at 177cm playing on the smaller types. This year he went forward and played in the midfield and had a very good year. Jade went on to be Vic Metro’s most valuable player and showed his quality there at winning the ball consistently setting up the play. He has good pace, good speed, good endurance, making good decisions by right and left hand and foot. He has shown a good capability to kick a goal and he finished off the year strongly as well. He is a very exciting player.”
