Well done to the Ryder Cup team, but it's not really a team is it? Four days of golf where many individual scores are attached to a "team" scorecard. It's very different to a rugby or football team where co-operation between each team member is essential.

Golf is an independent team where matches are played by individuals or partners.

I suppose the winners of the BBC trophy will be whoever can give the BBC a good return. They hate RL, so it's a long shot.

I recall the England Rugby Onion lot winning it in 1993. They played 5 games that year. Won 3 and lost 2.

In that year 92/93 Wigan won League Championship , Challenge Cup , League Cup , Lancashire Cup.

Mind you, at this rate Blackpool FC could win Team of the Year !!

Funny you should say that. I was in Riley's Pool hall last night having the same conversation with my mate.

Golf and snooker are so difficult to master because you are hitting a stationary object, no reaction involved, very big mental side to both.

Not so sure about the golf bias because when Saints won it they beat the victorious european ryder cup team of the time to the prize against all expectations.

wasnt it a phone in vote at the time?
and wasnt there a big campaign throughout the rugby league world to get rugby league some recognition by voting for stains???

its a load of garbage anyway..as proved by past winners.

princess anne??..........had the best horse
hamilton........had fastest car
etc

travesty that tony mccoys never won it............ok , he rides horses, but he get also rans to win with his skilfiul riding

I'm sure that there will have been a similar movement in golfing circles as well though so I wouldn't put down Saints winning that particular accolade (even though must of it could be put down to the power of RLFans!)
