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

Well Doc, it can only get worse.

If the Ben Brown deal falls over, Jaidyn Stephenson will smell like a rose and appear a Nobel Laureate compared to you. FMD even Tom $cully will be further up the pecking order.

Have a good day !

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.

 

 

Break ups are always hard. When bucks goes Eddie will follow like the little lost puppy he is and no doubt will continue to follow bucks around. 
 

IMO their relationship clouds Eddie spaghettis judgment big time.

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. 

I get the feeling that, if most here WERE keen on getting him, you would take the opposite view point and pot everyone for wanting someone with attitude issues.

Sorry about that Red !
However, I believe it is permissible, under certain circumstances, to mention the unmentionable on some threads.

Nonetheless, I shall undertake a penance and give the maid a jolly good thrashing.

No exceptions here. Thrash thine self as penance.

Glad you brought up Watts as a comparable, they are/we’re both unprofessional and seem to lack the dedication to the craft to get the best out of themselves. Not sure anyone cares where they went to school lols. 

I wouldn't mind Jaidyn Stephenson for Tom McDonald perhaps?

Is Jaidyn a good kick? Does he have pace? Will a change of environment do him good? Could he fill a forward and midfielder role?

 

Question: Is Brown & Stephenson a better combo than Brown & Weiderman?

Weiderman seems an obvious trade to the Filth.....

Embarrassing spelling too ... it's Weideman.  And no to the flaky Stephenson and no to trading Weed.

Brown & Stephenson vs Brown & Melksham/Fritsch is much closer and on potential would be favourable.

Sigh....?‍♂️... and from a teacher.

Stephenson is a gun. Weed was p**s-poor in the last three games and shows signs of being far too nice for AFL. Stephenson's bad attitude leads me to think there might be a bit of c*$! in him. Do we need a bit of c*$!?

Traded to North as the first pawn in Collingwood’s fire sale. 

I expect it will get done but the big sale item is still there.


Looks like he dragged a few skeletons out of the Collingwood closest on his way out. Sounds like a few of their players were not treated to well this trade period.

Buckley again not covering himself in glory in regards to player management. His reputation is taking a hit as a result of poor salary cap management. If I was him I’d be pretty annoyed at other parts of his footy club. So many resources, and still in such a terrible situation.

Gave collingwood a little clip on the way out. Wonder how some of their remaining players are feeling watching how their now former teammates are being treated.

@Nascent - could give a bit of a synopsis from JS and his clip that those of us that don’t want to trawl through the web could understand

About to head out but here's a link from the AFL website article derived from his interview on trade radio.

I didn't think he had to much between his ears. I remember a few weeks ago he tried to give out covid advice which was just ridiculous. 

But I can just imagine David Noble when he got the phone call saying Jaidyn has broken his hip because he had a few to many drinks and decided to do a trick on his mountain bike.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
