"Stephen Powell" (born 7 September 1976) was an Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League (AFL).

A journeyman in the AFL, Powell made his debut with the Western Bulldogs as a 20-year-old in 1997. He became known as a solid player whose hardness at the ball was very valuable, continuing this role as the Bulldogs reached preliminary finals in 1997 and 1998. Lack of pace, however, seemed to be his problem and at the end of 1999 he went to the Melbourne Football Club. He was again traded at the end of 2002, this time to the St Kilda Football Club.

His experience at the Saints was important, and he was an often underrated player whose contributions were an important part of a midfield that included stars such as Lenny Hayes, Robert Harvey (footballer)/Robert Harvey and Nick Dal Santo. In 2003 he finished third in the Trevor Barker Award and continued this form into 2004.

Powell played in St Kilda's 2004 Wizard Home Loans Cup winning side.

I like the time off from regular class.

It creates a national destination, something that people say, 'Wow, we have to go see this,'.
