go watch May against Collingwood in the last game of the year .. just the 1st half .. when I watched it he was so bad I turned to my mate and said this should be investigated for throwing a game… he was shocking and if that’s the way it’s heading no thanks

Maybe he just checked out like Charlie and TDK did. 🤔

"Stephenson has personally approached several AFL clubs, including Port Adelaide and Carlton, to gauge their interest in him, according to three sources who confirmed on the condition of anonymity his wish to return to the top level."

 
My reason for wanting May is that it would free up and take the pressure off of Weiters. It would also allow Hayes to stay as the third option instead of the second option which would be disastrous.

Harry Dean will be in his first year so we can’t expect too much from him and with HOF out we really lack key position depth down back. Don’t think it will cost as much trade wise either.

Wouldn’t be my number one priority but think he would be a good option for a couple years to help Weiters and allow Harry Dean and HOF to develop.

Plus we are a nice team, we need some mongrel and aggression.

Wright would know all about it so if we do I back him in and if we don't then there's your answer.

100% spot on. Bring in May and keep Charlie, we are realistically back in finals.

He was gone to North in the fire sale before Wright arrived at the Filth.

Clubs track their former players. He'd be very familiar with what the club thought of him.
 
Thought Stephenson was going to be a star after his first season; quick, skilled and a knack for finding the goals. Career ended up fizzling out pretty quickly, so you'd assume it was either between the ears or the heart-condition was more of a barrier than was publicised.

Sounds like we're getting rid of one talented wayward half-forward - may as well bring in another.
 
Steven May turns 34 in Jan next year…might be too young to fit their age profile Esk.

Agreed!! We add May, Jiath, Chesser, Riedy and Buku (plus whatever other opportunities present themselves during the trade period) in addition to Dean and Ison in the draft that really elevates our list depth.

Newy and Jagga back and hopefully a healthy Charlie and Walshy as well as an updated and modern game style developed with our new assistant coaches we will be much better next season.

Gold Coast is the only club with the volume of talent and the urgency of success that could see them part ways with home-grown academy guys. Charlie is also a uniquely marketable player that the AFL would love to have up there.

They could lose Walter, Flanders and Rogers and not feel any difference to their depth and best 22. They have Lombard, Patterson and Zeke next year who are all freakishly good.
I'd be happy with 2 kids with a potentially long career from GWS for a disgruntled Charlie.
Gruzewski and Gothard would be doable, and they ARE from Sydney for ffs.

Chambers you say 🧐
 
I tell you what I am not a fan of. The continuous blooding of young players that are light and don't turn into beasts. The only players recruited over the past 10 years that are ELITE in every way are Cripps and Weitering. Outside of that we have not only recruited poorly but keep going for slight, light players that get injured every 5 minutes because their bodies aren't up to the battle. We need grunt. Then the Walsh like players don't have top get killed in the contested ball every week.

TA
Wat, we literally need less grunt.
