The young gun plays offensively in the ruck and deep forward. He was a stand out for NT Thunder at the 2019 Under 16 National Championships on the Gold Coast. After the Championships he trained with the NEAFL squad and made his NEAFL debut in the final Thunder game for the home and away season. The younger of two Stevens brothers playing for Thunder, Ned will look to transition into the NT Thunder Under 18 Academy program and continue to improve on his 2019 form.
