Hine has already passed up the opportunity to select Stewart as a father/son pick. What makes you think he would go back on that decision now & trade for him? Not having a crack at you. Just curious. I don't see Hine going down that road. He would basically be admitting he screwed up.
During the champs, a typical James Stewart game seemed to be about 8 possies, a couple marks, one or no goals. He was tall, but looked like his weight would double if it rained. He didnt have the body or game for a KPF role, but he didnt get anywhere near enough or use it well enough for a flank.
Fast forward, and hes been on the GWS list and played a cuple games...which have sort of been along the same lines from what Ive seen. So Im not exactly seeing the massive untapped upside that we are missing here. Yes hes young, and tall. Im just not seeing that there are reasons to say he is going to be much more than what we are seeing, notwithstanding the prevous. Would love if someone can tell me otherwise.
He may be one who could be reinvented as a third tall defender, maybe?
