Yes, he only finished as No 2 in the world - poor show!

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you.
Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.

Wouldn't mind if Mo Farah won, but what's the betting the home counties vote for Andy Murray, a man with zero personality.


I,m sure thats changed a bit, when he came into the Olympic team and the current Davis Cup team he seems to have a different persona and shows more emotion when competing for Great Britain. Leeds probably are well up there for the team award more than the individual award.
Would like the winner to be from a "community sport" from athletics, rugby, football, tennis etc not like a limited engagement sport like formula 1, so I wouldn't want Hamilton again. So I,m still sticking for Mo or Murray.

You're entitled to your opinion but that is categorically wrong.

Don't agree with that. To start with there haven't been many times that Sinfield's not played and certainly not many big games.
In my opinion we've played our best rugby in some of the playoffs and grand finals and he's been a major part of those performances. I think you see Sinfield's influence more when it's a close game. The 2004, 2008, 2009, 2012 & 2015 Grand Finals I think he was a major reason why Leeds won those games.

I was thinking more last season when the young number 6 (Sutcliffe I think) was playing when Sinfield was dropped.

It's great for the sport that Sinfield is nominated, but unless there's an uncharacteristic show of non-partisan voting from the RL community, I can't see him winning; we're far too tribal for that.

It's symptomatic of the media bias against rugby league that it takes him to have to move to union to be nominated.


This ^
And you can bet that any narrative would reference "Kevin Sinfield, the Headingly Carnegie RU player"

Murray should win it for me, but I hope Sinfield does.
