Murray did it properly - he put us through 4 years of agony before he finally won one - none of this straight from A levels in Bromley to champion in 6 months nonsense.

Who's your 'bolter' for the 2021 tour of South Africa? 🤔

My favourite @FalconsRugby is obviously Toby Salmon. Second favourite is Billy Ocean (he might be a singer and not a rugby player but I like him anyway!).

Can’t think of any more aquaticly named players. It’s early and I’ve got a stonking hangover...

[Stephen The Seahorse @StephenSeahorse]

Brilliant! One of my favourite players!!

[Newcastle Red Bulls @NCL_RedBulls]

BREAKING: Samoan prop Logovi'i Mulipola will be a Newcastle Falcons player for at least the next two seasons after extending his contract with the Kingston Park club https://t.co/1pxoKK9h9V

[Stephen The Seahorse @StephenSeahorse]

Looking forward to getting a squad of all my aquatic themed pals together for this! Who’s in my squad I hear you ask? Only got Michael Fish, Alex Salmond, Dame Judy Tench and Eddie the Eel-gle together for the Newcastle Opening Weekend!! ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

@RLWC2021 @Gunnersaurus He’ll need to bring his ‘A‘ game as I’m already the reigning European Champion (beating Sarrie the Camel & Rory the Leinster Lion last year). Suppose a world title is the next obvious step..

[Stephen The Seahorse @StephenSeahorse]

Just to calm readers’ nerves I’m still here and no one has ‘done an Arsenal’ on me! Thankfully my old mate @Gunnersaurus will still be strutting his stuff. I’ve been resting up ahead of representing the city at next year’s @RLWC2021. Expect more soon!

[Stephen The Seahorse @StephenSeahorse]

Here I am last year being ‘hoisted aloft’ by some French Rugby fans at the Newcastle 2019 Fan Village. I’ve let my good friend @lindahoey know I’m available for the RWC2023 in France. She informs me I would be known as Stephan le Hippocampe which I’m fine with..

[Stephen The Seahorse @StephenSeahorse]

@magee_melanie Neigh!!! You can do better than that Melanie! You’ve had a mare..

[Stephen The Seahorse @StephenSeahorse]

What do you think I’ve been doing for the past 12 months?!? It may look like I’ve just forgotten that this Twitter account was active. In fact it’s been a strict regime of lengths of the Tyne, low fat crill and early nights in my rock pool at Cullercoats Beach!

[Melanie Magee @magee_melanie]

@StephenSeahorse Shouldn’t you be busy training for your next mascot race ??

[Stephen The Seahorse @StephenSeahorse]

Thanks @magee_melanie! You’re obviously a lady with good taste. What you doing Friday night then...??

[Melanie Magee @magee_melanie]

@StephenSeahorse @Gunnersaurus @RLWC2021 Good looking seahorse IMO 😂

[Stephen The Seahorse @StephenSeahorse]

Do they do the kit in large seahorse sizes??

[Rugby League World Cup 2026 @rugbyleaguewcup]

Now you've got your #RLWC2021 tickets, it's time to kit yourself out in our new range of merch.

What will you be going for? https://t.co/2G7E4UYYmU #ThisIsReaL

[Stephen The Seahorse @StephenSeahorse]

Good to see a re-tweet off my old pal @markismith50. There is no finer scribe of all matters rugby with the quill anywhere north of Brighton! I remember a riotous weekend in New York* with him, Oliver Reed & Sting back in 1971. Happy days..

*New York in North Tyneside, not USA.
