Someone has just pointed this out to me on twitter and it has changed my opinion in a way

Yes, Sinfield does deserve recognition but at the same time, he is part of team who are outstanding and the form in the last decade is unreal.

Individual praise or trophies?

I think the silverwear for me

Quote: Rogues Gallery "The players voted for man of steel and Sinfield wasn't voted in the top three. Tomkins was the outstanding player of the whole season.'"


Just to clarify,
As I was present the MOS awards, no one votes for the shortlist of three, that is chosen by the RFL,

I spoke to Sam and a lot of other players, and a lot of them were bemused with the result as the vast majority had voted for Benny Westwood, even Sam had.

The process needs to be a lot more transparent, I am not accusing the RFL of fixing the result as any of the three would IMO be worthy winners, but while the counting is done behind closed doors there will always be questions asked.

It's a team game. You can shove the MOS up the collective 'arris. Ask Sam if he's happy! Our players are ignored and we win the GF. That'll do me.

[quote="G1":1x8x7ghm]Nice one Andy. You articulated a differing opinion given reasons and substance. There's really no place for the likes of you on Substandard. :wink:[/quote:1x8x7ghm]:7098.jpg



2004 should have been won by Diskin or McGuire.

Sinfield had a shout in 2005.

Peacock should have run graham close in 2007/8??? But probably was just 2nd best.

Other than that I can't really Make a case for a Leeds player to win man of steel.

Player of decade however would be contested by Leeds players alone, probably finishing: Sinfield, Peacock, Burrow, Senior, McGuire

I don't think Sir Kev is too fussed who wins the M.O.S he's more concerned about team achievements and.
We all know how good he is ,what a great leader of men he is and what a legend of our club he is also the lads he plays with all know how much of a special player/leader he is and that's all that counts.

This sums it up for me. Also, the reason we are successful is we are a team and although we have great players we aren't so reliant on any one. We have match winners all across our team.

Quite right.

MoS is an irrelevant award these days, quite apart from the fact that its not awarded in the context of its original conception anyway (a career-long achievement of consistent high performance), its secretly voted for from a secretly selected very short list, its like the awards that people give each other in show business, five minutes worth of conversation and then forget it.

people will talk about this Leeds team's achievements over the past ten years far longer than they will who won MoS for any of those years.

...and I'd be quite disappointed in Kevin Sinfield if he accepted any honorary award from the state or the RFL.
