| Quote: tropical1 "Man of Steel is voted for by the players, not the media not the fans and not the powers that be, this award is players showing respect for their fellow professionals and for any of you who have ever played the game there is not better award to win at your end of season awards than players player. So it doesn't matter what the fans think this award is for players showing respect to the person they feel has had the best season.
The article is back on
100% bang on and anybody can see from some of Tomkins actions why his peers don't respect him.

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'"
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  |

of course loads of players niggle! To mention McGuire is a joke. Mcguie is not dirty at all. that's just Wigan hate(Wigan translation jealousy) well that's what you say when anyone mentions tomkin! But the other players who niggle arnt in the running for MOS!
All the blokes who win it from now on will be good players but guys who play the game in good spirt! The game needs nigglers but not many will win MoS steel. Tomkin has a cocky arrogance which Is a part of him. That's fair enough. But it isn't gonna help him win MOS. Thems the brakes!

Your opinion no longer holds any validity on RL matters. |

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. |

As most have said, I think Sam OR ROBY should have won it above Chase, nothing to do with Wigan. Of course it's voted for by the players, doesn't mean we have to agree with them. I actually think M Monas should have been in the 3 above Chase. |

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

IMO Tomkins has one nothing since Wembley and even then he didn't play particularly well - in fact, some aspects of his play were starting to really get on my wick. So not surprised in the slightest that he didn't win, especially if it's voted for by the players. More surprised that Roby didn't win but i suppose Chase has carried his team for most of the year...

A forum is all about people voicing/exchanging opinions and as long as theres no personal abuse etc there isnt really a problem is there?. Its like anything some things you will agree with and some you wont. Chase winning was a farce imo but thats just my opinion. That doesnt mean its wrong or right its just what I feel.
The trouble is our goldfish bowl is full of people from other goldfish bowls for some reason even though they hate us  |
