Quote: feilds of knowsleyRD "with the MOS being the players vote its not the be all and end all for the golden boot, but the fact he wasnt on the short list, dream team or the world 13, seems backward that hes then the best in the world'"
But all these awards are subjective. If it is based purely on people's opinions then there will always be controversial decisions. For example in my opinion James Roby should have won the MOS by a mile. His contribution to the Saints team is much more complete than (in Tomkins case) scoring fancy/flashy tries for Wigan.
