Fonz - is Paul Stephenson your love-child or what? Anyone who says as a Manly fan that Paul Harragon is their favourite all-time player, and that Paul Stephenson is their favourite current Manly player has rocks for brains.

Steppa is probably my favourite player. A favourite player doesnt neccesarily have to be the best one.
I Have spoken to the guy on numerous occaisions, and seems like a real champ, and i think he has really proved himself on the wing.
