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

[ClaytonM]

CFC (us by default) are very lucky to have three sublime medium sized forwards roaming the forward fifty arc. De Goey, Wilbur and now Stephenson, super!

If we could only get Elliott on the park as well.

 

[TradeDraft]

I'm sure the club will make him a mid eventually but he is soooo dangerous inside the arc it would be a shame to take him out of there.

For me that is Worst Case Scenario on what he could Develop Into is someone who is Dangerous Forward

Couldn't agree more. The ability to inspire acute, cringing, hand-wringing, panic-attack-inducing embarrassment in opposition defenders is a priceless and rare quality, to be nurtured to its fullest potential and then ruthlessly exploited. All with a smile. Please... don't turn him into a midfielder until he's kicked so many goals that he's bored with it.

 

[Kappa]

If the rumours are true then we won't see him for a while.

 

[Rorzza]

Oh dear!

 

[The jouneyman]

Stevo WTF

 

[eddiesmith]

What an absolute ******* idiot, how stupid can you be?

 

[Ron]

lol we breed em dumb down at Collingwood.

 

[Bloben]

Don’t jump to conclusions guys... I heard it was the steak in New Zealand that did it

 

[whiskeytown]

$50 bet on a Pies game earlier this year. Goodbye Stevo. You owe the club big after this ridiculous **** up.

 

[sr36]

May have plenty of time to work on his tattooing skills. I'm predicting him to return with more ink than Swanny.

Did he win the bet? Was his crap judgement also crap judgement or was his crap judgement an example of good judgement?

 

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

The last kid I would've expected to be so silly.................there's a "drafting IQ' joke in there somewhere. Geez.

[TradeDraft]

So what can we get for him on the Trade Table?

[BringouttheGimp]

This is where political correctness kicks in yet again.. bloke makes a $50 bet.. news for the next mth.. looking at every angle every loophole humanly possible.. makes a mistake let's not destroy the kid.. f give him a week if that.. and be done with it. Like the Afl gives a s**t anyway.

 

[Pie eyed]

Collingwood high profile player.....
Hopefully a fine, but I doubt it.

Just what Gillan was praying for to take the heat off his ineptitude.

 

[jathanas]

Why? Just, why? Crap news.

I'd like to be able to say something ageist like "youth is wasted on the young", but I've seen too much problem gambling to try localise it like that.

I hope he learns from this and repays the club for this f* up.

The AFL will rightfully punish him but then continue to align itself with bookmakers, of course.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

If there is any truth to the rumour Stephenson is an absolute drop kick.

You earn how much a year to play football professionally? You go through how many training courses around conduct and what you can and can’t do? And then you still somehow justify to yourself that you can bet on an AFL result? Particularly one you have an active involvement in??

There is no justification. Once again, if the rumour is true, he is an absolute fool and will deserve whatever consequences come his way. What the * was he thinking?

Turns out Higgins isn’t the stupidest bloke in the AFL. Who’d have thought.

 

[magpie_marty]

Just watching a replay of on the couch I get two betting adds,
And look I have no idea if this plays a part,But personally i HAVE DISLIKED GAMBLING ADDS RE AFL.For years
If this gambling is true so be it cop the time serve the crime,
Live and learn.
Not going to lynch this guy I love what Stephenson and what he has in terms of TALENT!

In a perfect world we would all be perfect.

 

[NT.Thunder]

* me he's 20 years old. Let him make mistakes and pay his dues.

 

[Kirby]

I've met him and he's not Higgins dumb.

Let's wait for the facts.

 

[Thedivided]

Man some people are overreacting here, I've met Stevo a couple of times and found him to be as down to earth and nice a bloke as any. So he probably made a little mistake get over it. A 50 dollar bet is nothing the only way you justify consequences were if he backed Melbourne to win or something similar it's not a huge issue. As stated earlier this has come at a good time for the afl to turn attention from the security issues of late.

Not the end of the world move on.
