Number named didn’t matter it was were he played, Roby was the same played a few games at half back. Probably the dream team selectors were aware of that situation same for Croft didn’t play many games at scrum half but they listed him at 7th -placement in the list.

Maybe you should ask the selectors because you won’t get the exact reasoning on here.

Should have been Saints players 1-13, I think we can all agree on that.

I don't think anyone would suggest that. I'd love to know what the team is supposed to represent though. Is it the best player in each position or is it the best players relative to their own baseline? I.e Harry Smith at Wigan. Very poor last season, decent year this, should he be in contention this year? Or should he not because he's not actually in the top 2/3 in his position in Super League in terms of ability? If someone like Sam Powell has a much better season next year, do you include him over Roby and Leeming who would still be better than him and playing to a higher standard, but who wouldn't stand out or get MoS points as they were just doing their usual thing?

I always believed it to be the best player in each position based on that season. So if a Wigan player somehow has a better season than his equivalent in the Saints team (would never happen obviously) then he would get picked despite him being a plodder rather than world class.

Looking at that side it clearly isn't picked that way.

No one takes it seriously anyway. Players get picked because they stand out in poor teams. Can you imagine the premier league dream team full of players from Aston Villa, Brighton and Brentford? No, neither can I

Duplicate:

Jack Welsby also on the short list for Man of Steel 2022, this forum would go into total meltdown if he won it.

Brodie Croft would be my choice though for his creative skills, how will it go will it be Man of Steel, Man of Skills or Man of Speed.

It would because he hasnt been the best player in the league this year

Give over. He's been the best player in the NRL and hasn't even played there.

He will win the RU world cup for England next

Then get knighted and win Strictly he is that talented.

I remember when Roby won MOS ahead of Trent Barrett. The melt down on this forum from Wigan fans was absolutely hilarious. There were death threats banded about, current regular wigan posters claiming they were never posting here again and posts how wigan should sue the RFL

Ahh good times!

Lets be honest Field and Croft have had a better season than Welsby.

You remember?

Thought you'd only been a member for a year?
