Early career

In 2008 he represented Vic Country at the 2008 AFL National Under 18 Championships, was named in the TAC Cup team of the year on the wing and also selected in the AIS/AFL Academy.

In 2009 he captained the AIS/AFL Academy squad in their annual tour and was in the leadership group for Vic Country at the 2009 AFL National Under 18 Championships. Stevens was also invited to and attended the annual AFL Draft Camp at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra in October 2009 but did not participate in much of the testing as he was undergoing rehabilitation from osteitis pubis sustained mid-season.

Playing style

Stevens plays primarily as a midfielder, but also has the versatility to play off a half forward flank. He has a strong, athletic build for a young player and his contested ball winning skills, attack on the ball, overhead marking, consistency, work-rate and leadership skills have all been described as strengths of his.[1]
