Don't suppose there's any chance that Stevie is actually fit and this is just a smokescreen by Rafa. Continental coaches are really fond of this type of subterfuge, we see it quite often.
Obviously I'm clutching at straws a bit but Rafa is full of surprises at the best of times. I mean, how many would've predicted Le Tellec in the starting eleven for the first game? (not counting Lynds of course who has a habit of predicting these things a few hours before thanks to her man on the inside).
