The brother of Adelaide Crows captain Jordan Dawson is missing in the South East of South Australia.

Jaryd Dawson’s wife Jessica Carter Dawson issued a plea on social media asking for news saying her husband had been missing in Robe since around 2.30pm on Tuesday.

“If anyone has seen or heard from Jaryd Dawson since around 2.30pm yesterday please, please let us know,” she wrote, tagging Jaryd’s mother and sister Marian Dawson and Chloe Cane.

SA Police told InDaily that police, with the assistance of emergency services, were currently searching for a 35-year-old man in Robe.

“We are not providing any further comment at this time due to privacy principles,” a spokesperson said.

Jaryd is the co-founder of Domus Design & Build, a boutique home building company based in Robe.

Jordan Dawson did not attend Crows football training on Wednesday with the club saying it was because of personal reasons.

Jaryd and Jessica were married in 2024 and welcomed a new baby boy in December.
