Following a promising debut season as a small forward in 2010, Jaensch held down a permanent spot in defence last year. The neat-kicking 22-year-old averaged 18.5 disposals across half-back and was on track for a break-out season before suffering a shoulder injury, which required surgery, against Essendon in round 17. Despite missing the last month of the season, Jaensch was recognised with the Emerging Talent award at the Crows Club Champion night. His best game came against Melbourne in round seven, where he amassed 27 possessions, five marks and three tackles.

David Noble: “I think Matty has matured off the field. He really wanted to grab hold of his opportunity and see what he could do, and that showed significantly in his footy. With another good pre-season under his belt, he could become a really high-quality backline player/defender in the competition. He's prepared to back himself in and is a great user of the ball, which is something we were crying out for. If you look at all the top-end teams they've got good quality defenders, who can actually use the ball and penetrate when they get hold of it.
