Steppa

[Spuds Bodyguard]

Spoke to Paul Stephenson yesterday and it seems most likely he will still be at Manly next year. He is hoping to have eveything sorted out by the end of the regular season.

 

[byso]

I think thats OK, he's not the best player but he has a go

 

[fLIP]

I dont think he meets bulldog criteria.

He hasn't even been to Coffs Harbour from all reports.

 

[PEPSI]

his car stereo is way below decibel requirements.

 

[PJ]

and not too mention he's no kebab fan...

 

[Larry Tate]

And he has a normal haircut!

 

[byso]

G'day LT!

He has a drivers liscence!

 

[Larry Tate]

Hey Byso,I trust the missus and young one are fine?

 

[Canteen Worker]

Larry welcome - you have missed a lot of carnage this season. Bysos flat-top has taken a hammering!! :lol:

 

[Larry Tate]

I'm glad nothing has changed!

 

[Canteen Worker]

The name has changed but it seems that King and Monas have become the bunnies rather than our dearly beloved Jye!!!

 

[Fro]

Vegas even forgot yesterday that the might JM played half for us last year.

How the mighty have fallen

 

[Ryan]

I have ZERO problem with Steppa on the wing for us next year. I'm sure he will get speed training in the off season, and he has been extremely strong in that position. From what I can tell, he hasn't made ONE error there yet.

 

[lasvegas]

agrred, i look at steppa like i look at a player like danny moore,he wasnt a great player but in a good side he just did his job,steppa i think could do the same.

 

[PJ]

Yes- I agree Ryan. I was one that bagged his performance in the centres but this move to the wing has proved to be a God send for him.
All he needs is, as you said, to get his speed up to scratch.

 

[Dan]

except for a missed tackle and a dropped ball!

 

[Fluffy]

He reminds me a bit of scott minto up at brisbane. Nothing flashy but no major flaws in that position.

being just 21 there is plenty of time to mould him into a decent (well priced) winger.

 

[PJ]

Vegas- I agree with the comparision with Danny Moore, similar type players.

 

[Fluffy]

Danny moore was a great organiser and talker in defence

 

[Ryan]

Steve Bell will teach him these skills. Adds a bit of size on the wing, and can definately jump for a high ball.
