And that's all he had on Monday when he met his hero Andrew Walker.
Steve - a lifelong Carlton tragic - actually had a memorabilia collection mostly devoted to Andrew in his Moama house that burnt down.
And on Monday, Andrew did his best to replace all of that but with an emotionally charged personal touch.
Among the memorabilia was a signed and framed print of Walker's mark of the year in 2011 and a heap of Carlton polos and track pants.
“Wow, that's brilliant,” Steve said, overcome with emotion.
But that was not all.
“In the New Year, I'd like to take you down to the club and introduce you to the boys and you can see them train,” Walker said.
Steve's face lit up.
“That's excellent,” he said.
“I haven't been to the club in 40 years. My uncle used to take me.
“You've just my day, no my year.”
The 61-year-old was left with almost nothing after his Francis St went up in flames on October 7.
A neighbour managed to save his caravan where the 61-year-old is now living, on the property.
“The insurance company said they would pay so I am going to rebuild slowly,” he said.
“Everyone has been so good to me. I've had donations of clothes, furniture and money.”
Moama Lions Club recently donated $300 to help Steve with his recovery.
“Thank you so much to the Moama Lions Club and everyone else who has donated,” Steve said.
“This will help pay some bills.”
