I suspect that you meant play off.

No, I don't think MOS should ONLY include play off games, but I think (correct me if I'm wrong) that they are more important and relevant than regular season games. I am happy to be corrected if I am wrong, but I suspect I'm not.

100% Place Kicking in the play off series. Over 4 intense games that is an astounding statistic

Sinfield has played 80 games in 2 seasons (and this is before this seasons 'internationals') You can count on one hand his poor performances during this period.

He's also just captained a championship winning team for the 6th time in 9 years, breaking all sorts of points records on the way. What more does a man have to do?

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

Sam Tomkins was a deserved winner this season. Do you honestly think that Leeds would have won last week if Tomkins would have played?

Yes

Tomkins showed in the CC semi that he was equally incapable of coping with Leeds bombs

I'm a big Sinfield fan, but to deny Tomkins M.O.S. this year is disrespectful to both him and the players from ALL the teams who voted.

Sam Tomkins is an eye catching player. Sadly(for some), his team has won not a lot compared with what Leeds RLFC has won. Leeds RLFC has an inspirational captain.

Sam Tomkins has a Challenge Cup Winners Medal, and is still only 23 years of age.

Just to reiterate the point.
Leeds were deserved winners tonight just as Tomkins was deserved winner of M.O.S.

If you aren't fired with enthusiasm, you will be fired with enthusiasm. [b:2rfqy71u]Vince Lombardi [/b:2rfqy71u]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_63706.jpg



I remember hearng an interview with Kevin back in 1999 when he had just broken into the 1st team on a regular basis. I remember being struck with his professional attitude for a 19 year old, down to the point of him not drinking.

This especially struck me as I used to go drinking around Hull marina around that time and used to always see the Hull and Rovers players out supping in their team polo shirts trying to impress the local girls. I often thought they could learn a thing or two from Sinfield.

Over the years he's proven to be an inspirational leader, always leading from the front as well as a master tactician and the best all round kicker in the game. He's been instrumental in everyting Leeds have done over the past 12 years and in my own opinion is certainly the most influential player of the modern era and stands up alongside the likes of Andy Gregory, Shaun Edwards, Peter Sterling and Andrew Johns as one of the best players I have ever been lucky enough to watch from the stands.

The lack of an MOS award over the years is a complete joke if you ask me and as someone earlier opined I think it is probably because he's been consistently brilliant over the years so has not attracted the attention that some of the other players who've had one off great seasons.

When he eventually hangs up his boots I think we'll look back and see that we've been privileged to have watched one of the all time great players.

Personally thought he was better in 2011 than 2012. Playing well against Hull KR isn't a benchmark for me. Playing well in a GF playoff series seems beyond him for some reason

You must have missed his match winning try and break for Gleesons try in the 2010 final, or his superb performance in the game at Headingley that year.

You come at the king - You better not miss. It ain't what you takin', it's who you takin' from, ya feel me? How you expect to run with the wolves come night when you spend all day sparring with the puppies?:41106.jpg

Do you really believe the result would be the same if the players voted tomorrow?

I have no problems with players voting on MoS but the timing of the vote devalues the award since it fails to take into account the fact that the best players come to the for when it matters
