Saints trigger extension clause for Jack Stephens

Realistically without Downes (unless we sign someone else who can play that role) we need to change system

 

Who'd have thought when he signed that Stephens would end up having a testimonial here.

 

I remember thinking that ABK needed a belter of a season to really come back and impose himself with us…. But checking the stats, he had a poor and injury hit season. For me, that Forest game where he was turned all ends up on TV meant he needed a lot more development… not sure he’s got it yet, not sure if he’s actually got the minerals to graft with us.

 

Completely forgot he’s been here since 2011. Spent many many seasons on loan though.
