They've chosen a pretty lurid colour scheme.

They don't look too far below the surface do they ?

Only one player included from outside the top-six clubs (the high-profile Morley obviously) and yet how often do these writers watch Catalans for instance where Olivier Elima has been as effective as any back-rowe ? Or someone like Chad Randall in a struggling Quins side ?

Incidentally, I noticed Martin Offiah did look below the play-off teams when naming.... (his client) Richie Myler in HIS Dream Team on Sky Sports News last night

Would that be the same Myler who missed his side's last five games of the season and 9 (one-third) of 27 in all

Its not been a vintage season by any means but I'm trying to think how many half-backs I'd name before coming to Myler....Dobson, Brough, Leuluai, Burrow, Robinson....

I really hope Graham gets his back-to-back MOS award now. It will just further emphasize the muppetry displayed by the so-called "Journalistic experts" who have somehow omitted him from the Dream Team.

ollie Elima , is very unlucky not to be in this squad .

Morley and Graham should be the props and also favourites for MOS. Peacock is on a steep downward curve now and will probably have only another good season in him.

lol

Agreed.

I think graham is unlucky to miss out. That is really the only one that could be questioned apart from maybe stand-off.
I think Gidley and Senior get in there because of the general lack of competition in the centres unfortunately.

Senior has been the best SL centre by a country mile, it's no coincidence that Hall has scored so many tries and happens to be outside Senior.

Also Sinfield has been outstanding this year and has picked up the Rhinos POTY award, he deserved to be in the Dream Team, so does Graham TBF

Shame he has the defensive qualities of a slightly mouldy potato.



Tomkins fully deserves to be in the team IMO, he's made a huge difference to us this year, not just in attack but his defending is superb as well. With him & Leuluai we've probably got the hardest hitting half back pair in the league.

Graham has held Saints' pack togather this season.

I'm not sure if it is some of his behaviour that has gone against him but he should be in there regardless of that. He's played better than last year when he won MOS

I think your statement above is very accurate and also the reason why he isn't in the team.

Graham has been relied upon to work 80minutes constantly and he has suffered because of this. Yes his stats are great but when you look at the length of time he has on the field they become nothing special.

The lad performs to the best of his ability week in, week out but he has been compromised by poor tactics caused by repeated injuries to the other props.

Tomkins will be world class, I disagree with the hard hitting bit though. Leuluai get's shrugged off alot as does Tomkins. I remember Matt King laughing at him as he swatted him off in the semi-final.
