RU Prop available - Matt Stevens - opinions? : Fri Feb 27, 2009 12:17 pm  

Stevens’ career is in tatters http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/rugby/4159663.Stevens____career_is_in_tatters/ Not saying I do or do not approve (or if he would even legally be allowed to play RL), but I read this article and wondered if any SL clubs may be interested in an England RU prop (32 Test caps, was and has as a result of ban has been removed from England’s RBS 6 Nations squad). Anyone think we or anyone else will raise an eyebrow at this news? I know nothing about RU, so I don’t know anything else about him? Anyone know anything?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

This is a joke, right?

Matt Stevens is a fat useless b&stard, who would be puffing and blowing after 2 mins on a rugby league pitch. He's make Feka look like the epitome of fitness

they'd let him play SL - after all his drug taking was 'only' recreational whereas Dwaine Chambers was performance enhancing.

Not somone we would want around the squad though, we have enough reprobates as it is

No for both off and on field reasons.

The story tunrned up in error in my NewsNow RSS feed. I didn't even know who Will Greenwood was when he turned up as our works Staff Development Day guest speaker last week! Was actually very good!

He's a big lad then is he?

Wasn't the case for Dave Allen.

Put it this way - he'd make Piggy look like Kevin Brown.

THis is him

Oh, and he came second on Celebrity X-Factor, with Kate Thornton calling him a 'hunk' every week, thus confirming that she is blind.

Anyway, that's as good a reason as any not to sign him.
