O'Loughlin has missed 2 games and has had an outstanding season.

Bar kicking he does pretty much everything better then Sinfield.

Tony Smith will make the correct call for the Quad Nations.

The loose forwad position could have gone to a few as there really hasn't been a stand out.

Sinfield is outstanding and is the main man for Leeds, IMO the most important player for the Rhinos

What they should have done is put Graham to prop, Peacock in the backrow and moved Galea to loose.

I thought Thomas Bosc would have been at half back, the guy is class.

A few surprises but I agree with the majority of the selections.

You could argue Sinfield or O'Loughlin I reckon, both have hjad very good seasons.

I hope we see the latter in an England shirt though.

Graham is good enough. But not that good.

It's not about your rating of ability, it's about performance levels this season.

James Graham has been sensational. Were it not for him Saints 2nd place would have been more like 10th. That is the difference he has made. He was Man of Steel last season and has IMO been better this season, despite having a weaker side alongside him.

On this season's performances I'd have Tomkins & Chase ahead of Bosc - Chase could have probably been put in at hooker instead of Scott Moore.

Sinfield at Loose is my only query? As already mentioned O'Loughlin has had a very good season (by his standards) and there is also a notable case for Jason Demetriou of Wakefield to be included. Not only has he led his side to the play-offs for only the second time, but he's had to do it in what has been a very emotional season and in the face of adversity what with the deaths of Adam Watene and Leon Walker.

They would struggle in the NSW Cup.

They make him look better.

You’ve also got to remember that your coached by someone who took Catalan Dragons to third spot last year when the year before that in 2007 they finished in 10th spot. Hence why the saints management bought him in - he can get the best out of an average team. At the rate potters going you’ll be 1st next year because he come from 3rd last year to 2nd this year.

Any other coach and I agree you would of finished 10th this year.

Unless you watch Sinfield week in, week out you don't often appreciate what he brings to the team as whole. Not just his playing ability but his captaincy role and the fact we look a much weaker side without him out their.

But maybe the same could be said about O'Loughlin, so i couldn't comment on him fairly.

Sky's coverage usually consists of Leeds at least 14 times a season. so you do tend to see these players in action on several occasion.

I can appreciate that Sinfield does a good job, and he's an all-round good player, but he has done nothing - in my opinion - to stand-out from the others mentioned.
