Jaidyn Stephenson - Swapping AFL for Fridgey Fridays

This one's exciting! Jaidyn Stephenson joins Pat Naish and Harrison Reid this week for episode three of What Could've Been. Less than 12 months after his shock retirement, the former AFL Rising Star winner sits down with the boys to chat through his rollercoaster career with Collingwood and then North Melbourne. Stevo had an electric start to his career at the top level, kicking 38 goals for Collingwood in their 2018 grand final year, but eventually fell out of love with the game and called it quits at 25. He goes into great depth about his infamous gambling scandal, his acrimonious exit from Collingwood, and life after footy. We also had a laugh about some hilarious stories with teammates from both clubs, funny mischief he got up to, and his new venture on TikTok. This episode was a heap of fun with some more random stories involving more niche footy names from yesteryear.
