Oppo Camp Jaidyn Stephenson (Traded to Nth Melb. 2020)

[Saintly Viewed]

Minus the heart concerns do you think he would have gone top 3 ?

Kevin Sheehan pre the draft not after it (like revisionists) said he'd pick Jaidyn as number 1 pick.

Interesting that he's already up to 80kg from 73kg this time last year. It bodes well for his ability to put on more weight in the next couple of preseasons.

18 weetbix per day is a start!

 

[Rohan25]

10 score involvements (1st)
524mts gained (2nd)

Will be a wrecking ball at 94 kegs in 2020

Smash packs like Kekka or Millane

Unfortunately by 2023 he will be an overweight Dean Rioli type and by 2025 he will be a diabetic

If Stephenson doesn’t win the Rising Star, the whole AFL can go get f****d

Agreed. Not sure why it’s even up for debate. By rights, it should be the most one sided contest yet, but people still keep throwing up names of people who haven’t had half as good a year as Stephenson.
If he doesn’t win I’ll never pay attention to it again.

What I love about him for the third week in a row, opponents try to ruffle him and he just smiles. Did it to Hodge tonight, was so funny.

Good to see him play further up field, think he could play wing and/or mid, all class. We have a beauty.

Said on Ch7 Sunday footy show that Hodgey was just warning him to stay away from Robertson who's a nutter.

Interesting, he also said he's added 9-10 kilos since he arrived preseason. Arrived at 71kg's, now north of 80.

Just on Robertson I thought he played De Goey really well. Tough unit.

 

[jackcass]

Allen Jakovic 71 goals in his debut season....

Graham Wright 38 (23 games including 1 final) playing small forward/wing....

Agree, a good physical matchup to watch.

 

[Kirby]

Graham Wright 38 (23 games including 1 final) playing off a wing....

He didn't play off a wing in his debut year. Mostly played as a small forward.

He doesn’t look 80kg - if that’s true then he needs another 10kg min as he is built like a stick insect.

Howe was Robbed last year of MOTY so don't rule anything out

I thought Grundy was.

Yeah, played a bit of both along with Brown, Millane, and Barwick.

 

[JJ14AU]

Very True. However that was a public vote for MOTY and with supporters of 17 clubs voting against Howe and Grundy the odds were stacked against him.

Witherden has extremely strong claims. Its 50/50 in my book. Witherden been more consistent but when Stephenson plays well he has greater impact. Will be close

 

[dmoore30]

Allen Jakovic 71 goals in his debut season....

He was like 21 i think

 

[jackcass]

Was 23 when he debuted.

Sheesh, should compare 18/19 year olds highest tally for goals. Would give a better indication of where he sits in his first season

Zactly....Wrighty was a very good small forward (great mark above his head and a dead eye). His wing stuff didn't start till his second year and what a winger he was!

A lot more of the ball is also parked down in Brisbane’s defensive 50....

Then finally be Darren Jarman.

Have you seen how big he has become like a big poorly developed mega house

The danger to him is not the other nominees but the afl selectors like spud Frawley (a more perfect name yet to be found)
