Saaaaaam Man of the match for me .

Whilst I think he has done enough to already earn such a gong, I wonder if Sir Kev's political belief would stop him accepting it.

MBE, I mean, not Man Of Steel.

His MOS chances have often been harmed, oddly, by his tremendous consistency. There always seems to be somebody else who has a more influential season. But not many who repeat that level of influence year after year after year.

I thought he should have won it in 2005 over Lyon, but there's no denying that Lyon was the more eye-catching player.

I have long since given up trying to convince other teams' fans of his worth. They can, to be frank, collectively do one. My favourite ever rugby player and probably my favourite ever sportsperson. He certainly goes in my top 3 for the latter with Steve Redgrave and Paula Radcliffe.

Summary: Legend.

Another big game, another big game display from the best big game player of the last ten years. Happy to get back from holiday to see such fulsome praise from most Leeds fans. Shocked Sal has had nothing to say.

How dare you lump sir Kev with a bird that shats on the street and a bloke who pedals a boat?

Disgusting
