He went on to make his Great Britain debut in Castleford in 1971 against the touring New Zealand side.
Stephenson won caps for Great Britain while at Dewsbury in 1971 against New Zealand, in 1972 against France, and in the 1972 World Cup against France, New Zealand and Australia.
Stephenson's time in the Dewsbury first team coincided with an upturn in the club's fortunes on the pitch.
He is commonly known as "Stevo", the nickname that he is known by in rugby league and on TV, played at club level for Dewsbury, and Australian side Penrith, and also played for Yorkshire and Great Britain, with whom he won the 1972 Rugby League World Cup.
Stephenson played in the position for most of his playing career.
Stephenson was responsible for the setting-up of the Rugby League Heritage Centre at the George Hotel in Huddersfield.
His greatest moment in international rugby league was being a member of Great Britain's victorious 1972 World Cup-winning side; Stevo scored a try against Australia in the World Cup Final.
He played in Dewsbury's 9–36 defeat by Leeds in the 1972–73 Yorkshire Cup Final and scored 2 tries in Dewsbury's 22–13 victory over Leeds in the 1972-73 Championship Final.
He left Dewsbury after their championship winning season in 1973 to join Australian Rugby League outfit Penrith.
He played 69 games for Penrith between 1974 and 1978, scoring 21 tries.
Stevo was also player-coach of the side for a brief, unsuccessful spell.
He ended his playing career in 1978 and settled in Sydney.
Stevo began his broadcasting career in Australia with brief spells at radio and television stations in Sydney.
He first appeared on British airwaves in 1988, when he was invited to co-commentate on the rugby league Ashes series in Australia for BBC Radio 2 with Eddie Hemmings.
In 1990, Stevo joined the new British satellite television broadcaster BSB as a match summariser for its Rugby League coverage.
At BSB, he joined up again with Hemmings, who had also been signed up by the broadcaster.
The pairing were kept together when BSB and Sky Television merged to form BSkyB in 1991; the combined satellite TV network inherited BSB's rugby league TV contract.
