I would get him. He can play. Question marks ? Yes but he is a super player.

I think super is a very big stretch.  The kid has some talent but definitely has an attitude problem 

He's had an interview with the club, fair to say it did not go well and he won't be a Demon anytime soon.

Don't know exact details, but heard Mahoney thought it was one of the worst interviews he's had, oh and Stephenson was late to the meeting as well.


Serious question, what's wrong with Buckley and Collingwood?

They broke up a premiership team because of a so called bad attitude and are now being sued by one of those players.

They don't seem to be able to deal with any player who may have an issue, easier to trade them out.

How would they have been with Dustin Martin?

Would he be the player he is now if he had been drafted at Collingwood?

Time to have a look in the mirror I would think.

The bloke bet on a game he was playing in...

Honestly, if that didn't confirm he is a complete dead-s£it then I don't know what would? ?

Edited by Graeme Yeats' Mullet

Not that fantasy footy should be any guide, but I had him in my Ultimate Footy side this season and so played pretty close attention.

Early on when he was operating in an around the 50, he wasn't too bad, though he definitely did go missing in second half of most games. His best attributes are his speed and marking and when he was "on" he looked good and managed to jag a couple of goals per game.

At around mid season though Buckley decided they wanted to play him more in the middle. He barely went near the 50 after that (even during the period DeGoey was out and they were struggling to kick more than 6 goals/game) and he played a bit like a fish out of water. The only game of note in 2nd half of year was v Carlton where he probably could have kicked a bag, but was inaccurate.

Anyway, he looks to me like another Harmes at half back type player, that is not being played in his best position or to his strengths.

 

There's whispers around that his attitude is a problem... seems to fit with Lord Nev's mail that we did our due diligence and passed.

I'd much prefer we focus on tying Oliver and Petracca to long term deals than potentially sacrifice one of them for De Goey. 

Agree completely mate, Sign Brown, get someone in who can play wing and then shift focus to retaining the young core we've built. 

Averaged 9 disposals and 1.8 tackles this year.

Looks like Jaidyn Stephenson is about as popular as me on here. 

Comes out with a bang early, looks like setting the world of fire and then..... just burns the place down by not delivering. Similarities abound ?

 

Seriously I hope all clubs say to Collingwood no thanks to any of their players this offseason. Do not help them out of the bind in any way, let them wallow in their own salary cap smelly stew.

Tom Phillips to the Dees being the exception. Otherwise I agree with your sentiments.

Not completely true @Dr evil,  there are those among us who see you as 'a colourful trade-period identity'

If this sums up the flatulent end of Jack's career it mercifully should of be consigned to finale in the Rockies maze where it should remain frozen. REDRUM

Lol you guys would prefer a well educated, spotless behaviour private school boy like Watts over someone with a checkered history with far more talent.

What would Stephenson be worth before this season? a pick in the top 5? he has had an elite season under his belt. And woul love to have him. He has elite traits and shown that he can produce over a full season.

Not sure if it's happened yet, but they plan to apparently.

No, I think most would rather someone who is professional, dedicated and hard working. Stephenson is none of those things.

"Elite traits"? Silly call for a player who is known to have nowhere near the required traits of a successful AFL player.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
