There is no doubt about that, I watched a bit of the WAFL and thought the same thing once i seen Stevenson (Reminds me of Birchall) should have been given a better go at West Coast in my books. But good to see him hoping to show the Power what he has got.
Do many of you guys think he'll be Best 22 from Round 1 this early? Or waiting to judge on NAB Cup?

I think he has a pretty good chance of coming in and making a name for himself

He's already got one, it's Lewis.

 

[ClintEastwood]

"Robert" Lewis Stevenson (sure it's been said...)

Looks good. Has a competitive upper body build. Looks quick and pretty skilled. One to watch.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Still really excited by this signing. Can't wait to see him in action.

 

[cj_09]

He will definitely be in our best 22 and will prove to be a very good pick up.

 

[King_Tredrea]

Looks to have a really safe kick on him and seems cool under pressure. This was a great piece of business by the club IMO.

 

[It Just Is]

Easily my favourite recruit of the off season, not only a good kick and decision maker but also has a more then solid shutdown side to his game.

He's a lock for my dreamteam too.

 

[Wargreymon90]

I want to know why he hasn't played more afl. He seems to have a near elite kick, good on both sides, reasonable speed and is a good size.

I know west coast would be hard to get into as a back flanker, but surely he would have played a few games. What's his knock?

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Swift was an inside midfielder. Sheppard was rated higher and his 2012 form was good across the half forward line, while Brown is a KPD.

Stevenson was competing more with Smith or Brennan.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Knightmare talking about Lewis on the D+T board.

As roughies (Supercoach) look out for Lewis Stevenson (Port Adelaide defender) traded from West Coast. Was really under utilised there and will play a big rebounding role as that precise kicking defender and be that no.1 option. Could be the next Matt Suckling.

I can't remember the exact number, but he was an emergency a ridiculous amount of times this year.

All my mate's who follow West Coast, were spewing Port picked him up.

As for my dream team and super coach teams, he'll definitely be in both of them.

13 or 14 i think it was... And really his direct competition was Hurn who is just a beast and he was never going to replace him... If he turns into Hurn-lite for us I will be very happy...

 

[Ebert80]

Recruit from a leading club who are over-stocked in a certain area (medium sized defenders). Good move

 

[BIG MATTY T]

Upgraded Pearce for pick 88 ......winning

 

[Macca19]

Really looking forward to seeing what he can do. If he can become a regular contributor across 18-20 games a year then we've come out well on top with this one.

 

[Chrizzt]

Hurn and Waters both play that rebounding half back role (and are arguably 2 of the best at it in the business), and I think Brennan has a slightly better propensity for 1 on 1 defence, hence why he didn't get games.

Can see why he didn't get much of a run with West Coast. He's soft. Very soft.

 

[S.Patrol.G]

He was certainly disappointing yesterday. Seemed a little hot in the kitchen for him.

Jake King used him like a barbie doll

He needs some man pills

 

[FishingRick04]

I wouldn't say he's soft but he lacks defensive body work that's for sure. Attacking defender he's great.

 

[Doctor Feel]

He's got time on his side and there is certainly potential there.

 

[Noobz0r]

He needs to spend a few hours watching the gloves gametape.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Wow, a few hours? I'm jealous of his stamina, it only takes me about 10 minutes.

Wait, what were we talking about?

 

[Hellgood]

Don't mind Stevenson. Can definitely play, but as others have said he isn't the guy who you want to be playing on a dangerous forward.
