Agree with this decision

Good back-up for Ivan & Hampson, takes the pressure off McBean as ruckman as he develops

Mature aged body for our VFL side, which means leadership at that level

I thought he was good for us when he played seniors so keeping him on for me was important at both first grade and second grade level for those attributes you mentioned WP. :thumbsup

When Hampson ACTUALLY played, was he hard at it?

think youd have to ask ms gale that
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Stephenson improving with age

Richmond ruckman Orren Stephenson believes he is playing some of the best football of his career, at age 31.

The evergreen big man has been one of the shining lights in the first season of the Tigers’ stand-alone VFL team.

Despite being well aware that he is fighting for his spot in Richmond’s senior team with Ivan Maric and Shaun Hampson, the popular journeyman is always looking for his next opportunity at AFL level.

“I’m always challenging myself to work hard and push my name up there, I suppose,” Stephenson told K-Rock radio.

“I was pretty happy to get myself elevated at the start of the year, and play my one game against the Bulldogs.

“My form’s been pretty good, and I still think I’m improving.  You can say I’m getting older, but I feel like my VFL footy has been as good as I’ve ever played.

“But I’m fully realistic about what my role is in the team.  Obviously, I’m a bit of a back-up to the other guys.
