Deservedly so. The guy has been almost flawless this season.

Well deserved, but I think Ben Westwood has been immense for The Wolves this season.

Agreed , he is a huge ( literally ) reason why Wigan have gone so well this season.
The award is voted for by the players now , not an oligarchy of RL press chumies so it means something.

2nd successive Australian to win , but only the 5th since it's inception in 1977.

Quote: "[iEngage Super League also issued three special awards to players deemed to have made a significant and memorable contribution to the competition throughout their careers and for whom 2010 is their last as a Super League player.

The three recipients of Engage Super League Special Awards were Malcolm Alker of Salford City Reds, Jason Demetriou of Wakefield Trinity Wildcats and Keiron Cunningham of St Helens.

Three very well deserved special awards there. Obviously Cunningham has been a superstar in RL terms but has been one of the best players in SL for many years. Alker and Demetriou are more of the unsung hero type but have always shown massive commitment to their clubs and performed week in, week out.

I am, of course, especially pleased that Malc has been rewarded in this way. he's been a fantastic servant to our club and shown loyalty that is so rare in modern times. Well done Malcolm

Who are the other 4 then? And for bonus points what year did they win? eusa_think.gif

For more bonus points who's the only Kiwi winner?

Jamie Lyon about 2 years ago ?
Not too certain about the other 2 but the only Kiwi I can think of who might have won it (if the award goes back that far) might be Dean Bell ?

Hull Kingston forward, class by all accounts. Pretty sure Richards has just become only the second man in history to top the try scoring and goal kicking charts in one season, Len Killeen being the other in the 60's.

*I take that back, previous records include all divisions and I'm not sure who has topped the charts in lower divisions this season.

As I say, my memory ain't what it was icon_smile.gif but I wonder if the following ever managed that feat or came close:
Frano Botica
Joe Lydon ?? (Not sure about his kicking duties)
Jonathan Davies

(Not doubting what you say Walshy, just thought they must have been near to doing it)

Problem for all them was Offiah was running in tries for fun in most of the years they played so it made it hard for anyone to do the double and Lydon wasn't that prolific a try scorer despite his great career.
