We hold a single season for Steele, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 14th of 20 of the 20 defensive midfielders in the A-League. At 23 Steele is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 0.6 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Central Coast Mariners finished 9th of 12 · a lower-table side
3.18 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (9th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 43.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 17.5, Steele carries the 14th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the A-League of 20, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Central Coast Mariners finished 9th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.18 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
