‘1000 percent I never sold them’: AFL legend in Brownlow auction fight after 30-year mystery

“I can guarantee you 1000 per cent I never gave them away or sold them,” the 81-year-old said.

“I don’t know how the hell they ended up there.

“I don’t want to see them auctioned.

“I’m going to take steps to prove that I’m the rightful owner.”

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Surely deserves them back if the current owner can't prove they obtained them legally.

 

[LordLucifer]

Do you really believe he knows nothing about their whereabouts though ??

Something a bit fishy about this story.

Hard to believe all Brownlow medals are created from the metal of a Russian gun captured in Crimea.

More to this than meets the eye I reckon..

 

[Jane Doe]

Would love him to give an honest account as to why he really left the Carlton coaching job so quickly

Stewie was a mercurial and brilliant player, and a left-field type of bloke. He was not one to hold conventional views necessarily, perhaps a bit eccentric and lateral thinking. After footy as a coach and admin bloke I remember interviews when he would say unexpected things. I always thought he was a bit short of a full deck, a bit like Sheeds and Mal Brown who all played together for a little while during that RFC golden age. What a set of oddballs, luckily Tommy could keep a lid on them. He was involved in uranium in the Kalahari they say.

Perhaps relevant to his brownlows, here is an extract from Wikipedia:

"In July 2014, it was reported that Stewart, who had settled in Woodend, had donated some of his football memorabilia to raise funds for local charity Artists for Orphans.[14]"

I understand his daughter worked in the UK for a while, and was occasionally visited by fam, perhaps some connection to his medals ending up there.

Not too hard to track down most of the details via the internet. Was allegedly charged under his "other" name of Ian Cervi.

He did cost us the final years of Rob Walls fantastic career though.

Much like the man himself, if you believe the rumours…

 

[Dinkers]

Was he interviewed outside a local primary school.

All very strange and not just from Stewart’s end.

The “owners” just “found them in a house they bought”… yeah right.

 

[Bont the Lord]

Sounds dodgy to me

Happens all the time, I found a couple of Norm Smiths in the cupboard of my house.

The West Indies actually lost the Frank Worrall Trophy for a while when they held it for all those years, it was found in a cupboard at Wes Hall's mum's house.
