Stewkes' Pen Picture

Hard-hitting wicketkeeper batsman. Makes Triangle bowler's jobs easier thanks to his lightning reflexes. Looks more like a convict than a keeper of the peace.

Other Information

A former member of HRH's Prison service, though finds Tony Quayle's methods old fashioned, preferring tazers as a method of riot-control. Now fully trained and hoping to become one of Her Majesty's finest through the police force. Provides the club with a Premier Division-class wicketkeeper (sorry Nev, but you're not), and at times a quality batsman. Hit a spectacular 70* in his first match back from a 4 year enforced sabbatical, then failed to get close to that for the remainder of the 2001 season. Prefers to keep his admiration for Doidge Jnr. under wraps. Considers himself as the best disco dancer the club has ever had. Continually receives text messages on his mobile from numerous "ladies". Can get very amorous after a few drinks and gender is no obstacle to Blacky when he is in the mood. Currently having a love/hate relationship with Traingle new-boy Will Curtis, forcing Tory Boy to "eat Lino" on more than one occasion. Replaced Dave Males in the club records for the longest time to score his first run in an innings, with an excruciating 53 minute barren spell against Bisterne in 2003.

Quotes:

"Things can only get better", "Anyone fancy a boogie?", "This isn't a come-on Doidge, but I really like you", "Trevett, be afraid, be very afraid."
