| Best for me has been Cuthbertson at Leeds, but the most exciting has to be Albert Kelly.

| I think the tough thing if you were going to give it to a prop is that Cuthbertson, Hill and Walmsley have all been so good.

| Roby or Hill - both Mr. Consistent for their clubs, and both are always consistently immense week in week out.

| Cuthbertson by a mile for me. Watch a decent amount of NRL but thought this guy was just a journeyman. Couldn't be more wrong.
This guy and Leeds are a perfect match, free flowing off the cuff offloading game. Don't think he'd be half as effective at wigan for example.

| I remember seeing plenty of Cuthbertson at the Knights, and he looked like 'just another forward'. Mind you, they were a dull side. I think there are some NRL players who flourish here more than they did there, not because SL is "easier", as such, but because the way the game is played here suits their style of play. I figured Luke Walsh for one such, although injury has limited him, and Cuthbertson is clearly another.

| Roby's just something else. He really cranked it up a notch against Huddersfield and was the difference in the end. Every week he's our best player. High work rate, dynamic runner, top tackler, great service, kicking game, vision, guile.

I think Roby is arguably the best player in the competition. I've never seen him have a bad game. He's been doing it for so long now it's expected of him and doesn't draw as much attention. Someone like Cuthbertson is performing way above expectation as such is attracting the media attention which is reflected on threads like this one. He deserves to be in with a shout but isn't head and shoulders above others as some are suggesting. I've not managed a live SL game this season as London are not there anymore. From the TV games I'd pick a shortlist (in no particular order) of Roby, Hill, Cuthbertson and Taia.

| Cuthbertson for me. His offloading game is something else and suits Leeds' style perfectly.
If not him, then Roby or Taia.

It wasn't drugs was it? Wasn't he named as one of the NRL players suspected of being involved in blood tampering? Didn't they use animal proteins in blood transfusions to accelerate muscle growth or something?

| So if we subtract the number of fans voting for one of their own team from the total number of votes cast this leaves us with ...
... THREE people? FOUR??

The problem with Roby is that he is a victim of his own high standard, he is world class and consistent most of the time and is probably handicapped because of it as far as MOS is concerned.

| Roby is a complete machine and is having a ridiculous season. I'd dread to think where we'd be without him. As some have said, he's just a victim of his own high standards and doesn't really attract attention any more.
Also agree with the Cuthbertson shouts and Hill is always top class too, bit whiney last night though.
Walmsley is also killing it. Good season for props!
