I think it's more a case of Wire being a great team this year and it being hard for anyone to really stand out. Roby and Sam have carried their respective teams at times this year.

I would rather be team of the year than have one individual stand out there is no I in team !
You could have picked three Warrington players as the three main candidates and no one could argue with it but we can't win everything and hopefully this will motivate the whole team !

The RFL don't have a say in it.
The players get a say but the final decision lies with Phil Clarke.

Ha, that actually made me chuckle.

I don't know why it comes as a suprise to people that Monas is nominated, don't they choose from the players in the dream team?

No, journos do the dream Team, the players do MOS. Thought you would have got used to Sally by now.

This i can agree with but it doesnt make it right that they get selected because rest of team is poor,that makes that mona's as been punished because rest of team as been good

Is it only me who thinks Chase is one of the most overrated players in SL?

I have got used to Sally! Still one of their better ones!

Your on alone, i have the same opinion

I would like to see him play for a top 4 team,one bloke always stands out in a poor team!!!

Chase was the best player on the pitch in the England v Exiles game.

Bit gutted for Monas, but on the plus side, he should blame the rest of our squad because I can only imagine our collective efforts this year have prevented any one player from taking all the lime light.

Roby is phenomenal, end of. And I'm quietly convinced that the positive's in their season thus far have been largely due to his influences. Therefore, he's worthy of being in the three.

Chase is pretty much everything to Cas. I actually like them and mean absolutely no disrespect when I say that too. They're bringing through some decent young talent, however, I do get the impression that if you take Chase out of Cas, it's like removing the lube from the schlong - things will no longer be anywhere near as smooth!

And as for Sam Tomkins, no one can deny his worthiness at being arguably the main candidate. Yes, he was a tool for giving the v's at Wembley, yes he annoys people with some of his antics, but let's face it, the kid is raw natural talent. That of which we are not often accustomed to in SL.

Tricky decision. I think Roby may sneak it if I'm honest.

Roby is my choice of the 3 Sam t is a class player but his petulance lets him down imo i think the 2 finger salute could had harmed his chances, just a matter of interest who chooses the shortlist

chase should not be in their he had a gd start to the season but fizzled out towards the back end monoghan has been consistant for you guys all year should have been in their for sure i just hope tomkins doesnt win id rather it go to roby he has had a gd season and deserves it more than rat boy

Roby has stood out in an average team for most of the season and has been unstoppable for 5000 metres. Wonder if we get to know the nomination scores, Mona's must have been 4th in the reckoning.
