ST is in the top few as a broken field runner. I would argue he is relatively weak in other areas though. Too many British RL supporters equate flash play with greatness. Effectiveness is what counts.
Pet. Civo. for instance in many ways looked ordinary but he was a great player because he nearly always quitely got on top of his opponents over the course of a big match.
Great players also win big, close matches rather than just scoring a hatful against weaker opposition.
In those terms, I think ST has alot to prove. I think he has the potential to do so though.
