Rumour Koby Stevens

[qwertyboy]

Haven't seen to much said about Koby on this board but has been heavily linked with the bombers. Would absolutely love it if this came off would be a good in and under player for us who has a nice pentrating kick. WOuld definetely be an upgrade on our midfield and with him, Melksham, Heppell and Zaharakis all the same age we could have a very good core group of midfielders coming through. Thoughts?

You've said some pretty questionable things in the past, you're either a total hipster, an advocate for the devil or a troll.
Koby Stevens, penetrating kick? He couldn't penetrate a VFL best 22.

The times I have seen him he strikes me as someone who is a nice kick with a lot of distance probably similar to Myers where he just has to have some confidence to really get moving. As for not in our best 22 I think he would be or very close to it. Was dominating the WAFL but just things such as West Coast having such a tigh knit inside group of Kerr, Priddis, The Selwoods and Shuey sort of always kep him on the fringes.
As for being a hipster I most certainly am not, thats far to mainstream, I'd like to think of myself as a non-conformist.

Ok I'll bite but just once who will he replace out of the team

Well in the 2009 draft if he wasn't picked a pick before our first second round pick I heard that Dodaro would have picked him. In the lead up to that draft even there were rumour we were even going to take him at 10, so he was and still is I believe highly regarded at the bombers.

Thats the spirit! And I feel he will join the rotation and probably replace a L-Murray or a Monfries. I see him definetely ahead of the likes of Lonergan and can see him being a Luke Ball type for us where his main objective is contested ball allowing for other to play there natural games alot more.
In summary hes a footballers footballer, a real classy player that would be a very handy pick up.

Not only is his kicking as good as Myers, but his aggression is up there with Hurley's, his athleticism is on a par with Crameri, his goal kicking is as good as Ryder, his tank is as good as Stanton, his vision is similar to Watson and his marking is right up there with Carlisle.

BTG, you forget, his leap is as good as Hockings.

Mhmm.

Ample avenues for such discussion. A separate thread isn't amongst them at this point in time.
