I dont understand how they got so many awards wrong.

MOS shouldnt be chase it should have been Roby even our own Tomkins is outclassed by this guy at times.

How team of the year can be anyone but Wire is ludicrous.

They got young player right though so well done there at least.

What else as he done?!

Go and watch every game of this season and then comeback you complete and utter idiot.

Yep! that and other inspired moments of stupid unprofessional acts.

He is an awesome talent but some of his actions on the pitch obviously warrant little respect from his peers!

When he grows up he might win it

Warrington went from a team in third to a team that finished top (only a 5 point swing in the end I think) whereas Catalans went from bottom to 6th and a playoff win. They constantly got high crowds despite moving around the area and thus promoted the game better than most. I named them as a contender in the week, but didn't think they wouldn't give Wire anything seeing as they seem to love them, but Catalans were by far and away the best candidate imo.

Classy, well thought out response.

Now any chance of a real answer?

It is a genuine question.

I am getting at the fact that surely he must be being groomed to play 6.

In the absence of an organising half back partner, do you think he will be able to step up to this challenge?

I hope he does, genuinely as england bloody well needs it !

It's obvious he shows that kind of respect to his peers on the pitch!

He has upset plenty with underhand niggleing

It doesn't bother me, every team needs a bit of niggle but if he wants man of steel don't be a complete twonk to the people who have to vote for ya! Leave that to the likes of Bailey, Joel and pryce

Chase was banned for getting on top of another playing and battering him....thats ok though?

I thought the award is supposed to be for the stand out performer in the whole league? Not who is best in the showers or who is an all round good egg. If people seriously think that Tomkins is the only player that has done a bit of niggling then they are more deluded than I thought. Not just that but why is Chase also rated in front of Roby? That utter stupidity too

The king of niggle plays for Leeds anyway, Danny mcguire

Its that embarrassing that its actually funny, just like international RL.

Your opinion no longer holds any validity on RL matters.

I think you'll find it's only really wigan fans who think he is dirty.

This is a ridiculous thread and sums up what's been happening on this Site for a while now. The award was voted for by the players, including the Wigan players, and Chase was the winner. Unfortunately Wigan players can't win everything and the SL players as a whole decided that Rangi Chase was the stand-out player for this season, end of story.
Wire fans think we should have been Club of the Year, but it was given to the Catalans, who have made tremendous progress this year, and most of us accept that. Get out of the Goldfish bowl and realise that there is more to the game than Wigan.

I agree with your first sentence, the site is full of fans from other boards who don't read threads, make things up and are obsessed with Wigan. If you'd actually bothered to read the thread you'll see a few who are moaning, the rest are pretty much not bothered about it. Considerably less whinging has gone on in this thread than that on the Wire board when no Wire player was on the shortlist.
