After interviewing Stefano at the Ambush Event on the weekend, we have also managed to organise another interview with him for the Wests Tigers Podcast. We will be chatting to him tomorrow afternoon to discuss his career and time at the Wests Tigers. If you have any questions that you would like to have asked put them in this thread and we'll try and use a few of them in our chat.

Garry, there was talk early last year about our current group of players making some sort of a pact to stay together and make the Wests Tigers strong. I know Shawn Blore was one of them.

I know we have had a few injuries, Blore being one of them but with Luciano and now Thelma leaving next year it seems it is a hollow pact.

Thoughts?

Garry, Thanks for inviting me to ask a question to my hero. I've thought of several but the best one of these is;

"Stefano, Along with so many Tigers fans I believe you're not far away from playing representative football. What areas of your play are you and WT Coaches working on to make sure you maximise your chances to play rep footy? (eg. off loads) If you make a national team would it be Australia or NZ?"

Awesome question mate, it came in after I spoke to Stefano but it is a question I had asked him.

My question for Stef is "What the hell are you doing wasting your time with us?" but I'd never ask it out loud.

I know and Im very grateful for it. Im joking and being facetious but if Im being honest I actually feel a bit sorry for the likes of Stef during the first 5 rounds when we look hopeless and guys like this have made a huge commitment placing their career in the hands of our club. There is a responsibility.

 

We are incredibly lucky to have him and I hope the club can make it worth it for him.

I know you were mate, i have just been so blown away by him over the past couple of days. Have spent over an hour chatting with him and he is so humble and giving of his time, he makes you feel like you are doing him a favour when he is giving up his time to help you out. I couldn't be more impressed.
