why can't people grasp it is an INDIVIDUAL award, not team.
in my opinion, all 3 are worthy, as well as others not even on the shortlist.
stating the case for moz, as said before his controlled aggression this year has been amazing, refs used to look for him to give away a penalty, i think this year he has changed this view and he is now seen as 'hard but fair'.
whenever the team or atmosphere has gone a bit 'flat' in a match, he's been the one to put in a big hit, or get his self at first receiver and run the ball in full tilt and lift the team.
he gets on with the game, when the opposition target him for some rough treatment, he gets up dusts himself off and just plays the ball, no whinging to the ref, the offender (or his own team mates
)
the effect he has on the players around him cannot be underestimated.
as stated before, his standing in the game and respect he receives from his peers speaks volumes about the player...and the man!!
He is a MAN OF STEEL!!!!
